The Uptake of Iron by Bean Plants as Influenced by Age, and Calcium and Bicarbonate Ions in Solution Cultures

Chlorosis of the foliage of higher plants has constituted a severe fertility problem in many areas of the world. It has been reported in no less than 30 countries. It has manifested itself in the western states and has usually been associated with a high CaCO3 content in the soil. The problem con...
