296. Black Current Leaves
Magnesium deficiency
Strong central purpling with narrow green marginal band.
297. Black Current Folliage
Potassium deficiency
Leaves brown marginal scorch and slight intervenal chlorosis, which
follow purple tinting of marginal areas.
298. Black Current Leaves
Iron Deficiency
Terminal leaves strongly chlorotic. (cf.
Plate No. 299, manganese deficiency)
299. Black Current Leaves
Manganese deficiency
Somewhat faint intervenal chlorosis as well defined pattern. (cf.
Plate No. 298, iron deficiency)
300. Red Current Foliage
Potassium deficiency
Dark brown marginal leaf scorch with forward curling of margins and some intervenal chlorosis. (cf.
Plate No. 301, chloride injury)
301. Red Current Foliage
Chloride injury
Bright reddish brown marginal scorch. (cf.
Plate No. 300, potassium deficiency)
302. Gooseberry Foliage
Phosphorus deficiency
Leaves dull purple tints becoming red later.
303. Gooseberry Foliage
Magnesium deficiency
Leaves broad red marginal bands which fade to cream color.
304. Gooseberry Leaves
Magnesium deficiency
Broad red marginal bands, later fading to cream.
305. Gooseberry Leaves
Potassium deficiency
Bluish green color, margins generally curled backward; develop purple tints followed by grayish brown marginal scorch; purpling disappears as scorching develops.
306. Raspberry Leaf
Potassium deficiency
Marginal leaf scorch and intervenal browning; leaves tend to curl backward towards under surfaces, but scorched margins turn forward.
307. Raspberry Foliage
Iron deficiency
Terminal leaves severe chlorosis followed by marginal and intervenal necrosis. (cf.
Plate No. 308, manganese deficiency)
308. Raspberry Foliage
Manganese deficiency
Leaves intervenal chlorosis beginning near margins and progressing towards midribs as well defined pattern; terminal leaves green or less chlorotic than older leaves, in contrast to iron deficiency. (cf.
Plate No. 307, iron deficiency)
309. Strawberry Plant
Iron deficiency
Leaves severe chlorosis; green network of fine veins distinct in early stages. (cf.
Plate No. 310, manganese deficiency)
310. Strawberry Leaf
Manganese deficiency
Somewhat faint intervenal chlorosis beginning at margins and progressing towards midrib; where severe, chlorotic areas yellowish appearance. (cf.
Plate No. 309, iron deficiency)
311. Vine Leaves
Magnesium deficiency
Varity, Muscat of Alexandria (green fruited variety). Central or marginal intervenal chlorosis followed by intervenal necrosis.
312. Vine Leaves
Magnesium deficiency
Varity, Gros Colmar (black fruited variety). Strong intervenal purpling fading to red, and intervenal necrosis.
