Boron deficiency-Sugar Beet

Oireet
The symptoms start on younger leaves which get crinkled and brittle and remain small. Later they get twisted and black or brown corky spots appear on the petioles. The younger leaves show wilting symptoms and become subsequently black and dry. The older ones show wilting symptoms with chlorosis between the leaf veins. The growing point dies off ("heart rot") and also the beets get dry and die off. After rainfall, the plants may recover and form lateral leaf rosettes.
