What adverse effects does sulfur deficiency bring to rapeseed?
Effects of sulfur deficiency on rapeseed
(Agricultural Wealth Network) When sulfur is deficient, the formation of chlorophyll in rapeseed is affected, the leaves appear yellow-green, and the plant grows poorly. Sulfur deficiency limits protein synthesis and reduces the relative content of sulfur-containing amino acids. In sulfur-deficient plants, chlorosis appears between the veins while the veins remain their original green, flower color fades, yellow turns to white, and flowering continues without stopping, with pods ripening unevenly. In cases of severe sulfur deficiency, the stems become shorter and harder.
