Abstract:

Micronutrients are essential elements utilized by plants for a healthy growth. Each of these elements has a significant role in plant nutrition. Boron is an essential element for plants’ development. Adequate B nutrition is critical for quality of crops and high yields. In small concentrations boron compounds are used as micronutrients in fertilizers, in large concentrations it adversely affects the plant growth and can be used as. But there is a narrow range in boron deficiency and toxicity. Present review work focused on the toxic concentration level of boron and its effects on plant growth as well as the methods to overcome the boron toxicity

Keywords:
