Abstract

Macronutrients are very important for plant development and growth. They can be important constituents of various structural units and redox sensitive agents. Moreover, macronutrients can improve the yield, quality and growth of crops. Now a day, biotechnologists, plant physiologists and ecophysiologists have been investigating other blind features of these minerals, as macronutrients are involved in every aspect of plant life. Each macronutrient has its own characteristic features, and are involved in different metabolic processes of plant life.
