Abstract

The balance in plants of the principal ionic constituents is reviewed in relation to the requirements for each element, and for total accumulation as reflected in the total-cation, inorganic-anion and organic-anion contents. The balance in young wheat plants was investigated by adding various combinations of the principal ions to the soil. A summary, of tests on the adequacy of supply of the principal nutrient ions and the accumulation of cations, inorganic anions and organic anions, based on critical values for contents in the plant material, is presented for diagnosing nutrient status in relation to capacity for maximum growth.
