Influence of Exchangeable Sodium on the Growth and Mineral Composition of Plants I. Paddy and Barley

Year: 1964

Type: article

Abstract: A study was made of the effect of E.S.P. on the growth and mineral composition of barley plants grown in soils of sodium carbonate and bicarbonate series, each at nine E.S.P. and of paddy plants grown in soils of sodium carbonate, bicarbonate and sulphate series, each at thirteen E.S.P. Growth of barley and paddy plants was depressed at high E.S.P. on soils of sodium carbonate and bicarbonate series. In the sodium sulphate series, there was hardly any growth depression in paddy.
