Since there is a physiological interaction between iron and potassium, a low<br />

potassium content in the soil tends to aggravate iron toxicity.<br />

Under reductive conditions, sulfate is reduced to sulfide. If there is little active<br />

iron to react with the sulfide, free hydrogen sulfide may exist in the soil solution,<br />

damaging the roots and retarding nutrient uptake. As a result, the plant becomes<br />

unbalanced in nutrient content and susceptible to Helminthosporium infestation.<br />

Low nitrogen supply makes the roots more susceptible to hydrogen sulfide<br />

injury and the plants more susceptible to Helminthosporium. Potassium-deficient<br />

plants are also susceptible to Helminthosporium. A low cation exchange capacity<br />

is a causative factor in nitrogen or potassium deficiencies at later growth stages if
