Molybdenum Deficiency
When plants are deficient in molybdenum, growth is often stunted, and leaves may develop pale green to yellow coloration, especially on older foliage. Symptoms can include interveinal chlorosis, marginal scorch or burn, and, in more severe cases, distorted or crinkled leaves. Because molybdenum plays a key role in nitrogen metabolism, deficiency symptoms may also resemble nitrogen deficiency, particularly in legumes.
