Abstract
One hundred and seventy days after the foliar application of Mn solutions, the mean Mn concentrations in the leaves treated with MnSO4·H2O (200, 400, 800 or 1200 mg Mn lâ1) or MnEDTA (400, 800 or 1200 mg Mn lâ1) were significantly higher than those of the control leaves. Manganese sulfate (MnSO4·H2O) was more effective than MnEDTA regarding the improvement of the leaf Mn concentrations of the trees, when applied at equal Mn concentrations. Finally, the leaf Mn concentrations were in the sufficiency range (>25 mg kgâ1 d.w.), only after the application of 800 or 1200 mg Mn lâ1 as MnSO4·H2O.
