Abstract

Titanium is the tenth most common element in the Earth's crust. In soils we find it in form of TiO2, some titanates and Ti-silicates. Therefore, in most cases Ti is not taken up by plants and therefore, it is not a member of the food chain. Water-soluble and pH-stable chelate form, Ti-ascorbate was applied in plant and animal nutrition. It was demonstrated on a very large scale that Ti-ascorbate has a very avorable, beneficial role in various physiological processes. The results show that Ti should be a member of the family of demonstrated beneficial elements.
