  9. Cu; a metallic element found in soils at 1 to 50 parts per million, and in plants up to 100 parts permillion. It is necessary for all animal and plant life. High soil phosphorus, zinc, and molybdenum can induce acopper deficiency in plants. Also, high copper can reduce plant uptake of phosphorus, iron, zinc, andmolybdenum.
