  • Pollination and fruit setting
  • Translocation of sugars and other plant metabolites
  • Symbiotic fixation of nitrogen in leguminous plants
  • Resistance to cold and phytopathogens

Boron deficiencies are common in sandy or clay soils, soils with pH below 5.5 and above 7.5, in soils with low organic matter, or high irrigation/rainfall.
