The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A comparison between different chlorophyll content meters under nutrient deficiency conditions (2017, background): “such as Ca deficiency (Brand and Becker 1984), Mg (Laing et al. 2000), P (Corbridge 1995; Hill et al.”
Magnesium applications to growth medium and foliage affect the starch distribution, increase the grain size and improve the seed germination in wheat (2016, background): “In Mg-deficient plants, carbohydrates start accumulating in source leaves before other physiological processes such as photosynthesis are affected by Mg deficiency (Laing et al. 2000; Hermans et al. 2004; Hermans and Verbruggen 2005).”
Physiological and molecular responses to magnesium nutritional imbalance in plants (2013, background): “Low Mg levels affect the net rate of photosynthesis across a wide variety of plant species (Fischer and Bremer 1993; Laing et al. 2000; Ridolfi and Garrec 2000; Hariadi and Shabala 2004; Ding et al. 2006; Ling et al. 2009).”
Nutritional and chlorophyll fluorescence responses of lucerne (Medicago sativa) to waterlogging and subsequent recovery (2005, background): “Magnesium is an important component of chlorophyll as well as being involved in the activation of a large number of photosynthetic enzymes, carbohydrate partitioning and phloem loading (Cakmak et al., 1994a; Laing et al., 2000).”
