What deficiency in plants due to chlorosis?
lack on magnesium (Mg)
Why does chlorosis occur in plants?

What disease is caused due to air pollution in which tissues of plants leads to death?
chlorosis
Chlorosis is the phenomenon where leaves have what?
Chlorosis is the phenomenon where leaves have a deficiency in nitrogen. The leaves will turn yellow because they have less chlorophyll production.
What are the causes of chlorosis in plants?
Nutrient deficiencyis what causes chlorosis in plants.Specifically, the term chlorosis designates a condition whereby foliage appears lighter than normal, typically pale or yellow green. The cause is nutrient deficiency or interference with the plant synthesizing necessary amounts of chlorophyll. The interference may be due to:Minerals such as iron and magnesium being deficient or being present but unavailable because of improper soil pH;Nitrogen and protein deficiency;Roots being compacted, damaged or waterlogged;Toxicity from ozone weakness, pesticides and sulphur dioxide.

What does iron do in a plant?
Iron is important for chlorophyll formation, necessary for photosynthesis; and also important for respiration.When insufficient iron is available, the plant may show symptoms of the deficiency such as chlorosis:
