                                Symptoms
                                Younger leaves show interveinal chlorosis and necrosis which occurs in irregular patches. Whitish spots develop within the brown necrotic tissue.
Symptoms may also start on older leaves.
                            
                                Reasons
                                Zinc deficiency
                            
                                Symptoms
                                Younger leaves show interveinal chlorosis and tipburn. Whitish spots can develop within the brown necrotic tissue.
The leaf blades are small, narrow and cupped upward. Shoots can be stunted.
                            
                                Reasons
                                Zinc deficiency
                            
                                Symptoms
                                With zinc deficiency, leaves are smaller and growth is stunted. 
The leaves are deformed and fold inwards ('fern leaf of potato' ). 
Greyish brown to bronze coloured blotches appear first on the middle of the leaves, later all over the foliage.
                            
                                Reasons
                                Zinc deficiency on leaves
                            
                                Symptoms
                                Younger leaves show interveinal chlorosis. Whitish spots can develop within the affected tissue.
The leaf blades are small, narrow and cupped upward. 
                            
                                Reasons
                                Zinc deficiency
In potatoes, zinc deficiency symptoms are variable. Generally the leaves are smaller and the plants are stunted in growth.
                            
                                Symptoms
                                With Zinc deficiency, leaves are smaller and growth is stunted. 
The leaves are deformed and folded inwards ('fern leaf of potato' ). 
 Mature leaves are affected most: greyish brown to bronze coloured blotches appear first on the middle of the leaves, later all over the foliage. Leaf blades show interveinal chlorosis.
