Correct Answer: Nitrate reductase


Solution : The correct answer is Nitrate reductase.

In most plants, symptoms of molybdenum deficiency are coupled with a buildup of nitrate in the afflicted plant component. This is due to low nitrate reductase activity. Pale leaves with interveinal and marginal chlorosis (yellowing) and necrosis (scald); whiptail condition in Brassica crops (particularly cauliflower); reduced tasselling in maize; early germination of maize grain are some of the symptoms.
