Abstract
A new technic for studying cation absorption by plants is presented involving the use of a polarograph. By setting the polarograph at the potential (E 1/2) for a specific cation and attaching the negative pole to the plant and the positive pole to the nutrient soln. or soil there is a rapid uptake of that ion by the plant.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
