Abstract: 
A conventional photometric method to determine chlorophyll concentrations in maize leaves was evaluated. It was tested whether in Mg-deficient plant tissue the addition of MgCO3 during pigment extraction converts protoporphyrin IX into chlorophyll, falsifying concentration measurements. The non-destructive N-tester was used as a reference for the destructive chlorophyll determination. It is shown that both methods are valid for the determination of chlorophyll concentration in Mg-deficient leaves.
