Abstract
Pot experiments were carried out with perennial ryegrass during the spring of 1955 and 1956. The mineral composition of the grass grown for varying lengths of time over a temperature range of 10-20 degrees G. was followed. It was found that a transition from cold to warm usually led to an increase in the cation content of the plants, the K-content undergoing the greatest change. Results were in agreement with the conclusions drawn by Kemp and 't Hart. [See Abs. 1028] from results of field experiments.-M.P. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
