This document summarizes common mineral deficiencies in plants. It identifies that nitrogen deficiency causes yellow leaves and stunted growth, potassium deficiency causes yellow leaves that die, and magnesium deficiency causes yellow leaves with green veins and brown spots. Phosphorus deficiency reduces all aspects of plant growth. The document also states that plants absorb mineral ions from the soil through their roots to enable general growth, and mineral deficiencies result in stunted growth or yellow leaves.
