The role of EDDHA-Fe
EDDHA-Fe is an iron chelating agent that can provide soluble iron in the soil and promote the absorption and utilization of iron by plants. Its main functions are as follows:
1. Iron supply: EDDHA-Fe can stabilize iron ions and keep them soluble in the soil. In this way, the plant's roots can more easily absorb iron, avoiding problems such as yellowing and leaf atrophy caused by iron deficiency.
2. Iron absorption and transport: EDDHA-Fe can promote the absorption and transport of iron by plant roots. It is able to bind to iron in root cells, form stable complexes, and transport iron ions to other tissues in the plant through iron transporters on the root cell membrane.
3. Chlorophyll synthesis: Iron is an important part of chlorophyll synthesis, and the supply of EDDHA-Fe can promote the synthesis of chlorophyll and the increase of chlorophyll content. This is very important for photosynthesis and growth and development of plants.
4. Antioxidant effect: Iron is an important cofactor of antioxidant enzymes in many plants, which can help plants fight oxidative stress. The supply of EDDHA-Fe can increase the amount of iron in the plant, thus improving the antioxidant capacity of the plant.
In short, the role of EDDHA-Fe on plants is mainly to provide soluble iron, promote the absorption and utilization of iron by plants, thereby improving the growth and development of plants, and enhancing the resilience of plants.
