The forms of occurence of potassium and sodium were studied in the grasses <i>Dactylis glomerata</i> L., <i>Poa annua</i> L., <i>Festuca rubra</i> L. and dendelion (<i>Taraxacum officinale</i> Web.) treated with increasing mineral fertilizer doses, magnesium and microelements, under conditions of pot culture. The plants took up potassium in amounts greatly exceeding their requirement, and sodium in very small amounts. Mineral NPK doses increased in the tested plants both the content of potassium and sodium forms soluble in trichloroacetic and acetic acids and water. Magnesium and microelements had no major influence on the content of these potassium forms, but they increased the concentration of analogous forms of sodium in <i>Taraxacum officinale</i> and did not influence their accumulation in the grasses. Potassium and sodium compounds were completely extracted from the plants with trichloroacetic, whereas acetic acid extracted 88-95 percent of potassium and 66-74 percent of sodium. Distilled water extracted 70-77 and 28-33 percent of potassium and sodium, respectively.

Abstract The ethanolic extract of trunk wood of Tachigalia paniculata Ducke (Leguminosae-Caesalpinioideae) was found to contain substantial quantities of 2-(3-indolyl)-acetic acid.

In all plant species tested, increasing concentrations of phytohormones produced responses falling on a physiologic curve from minimum through optimum to maximum which, if exceeded, led to injury and death. Indolyl-acetic acid, its butyric and propionic homologues, naphthylacetic acid, their salts, and mixtures gave similar results. Treating seeds with hormones incorporated in adsorbent dust stimulated both root and top growth markedly, with less danger of overdosage than in solution treatment. Dosages equivalent to 50 to 250 mg. per acre applied as dilute solutions to soil growing young lettuce and tomato plants covered the optimum range of stimulation to growth. Dust treatment of cuttings proved very convenient and successful in inducing rooting, the plants again showing a wider range of tolerance to dusts than to solutions. Fermentation of sugar by yeast responded to hormone stimulation. Various practical applications are discussed.
