A sand culture greenhouse experiment was conducted with papaya, Carica papaya L., variety Blue Solo, to determine the effects of four levels of Bin the nutrient solution (0.01, 0.05, 0.1 (control), and 1.5 p/m) on growth, fruiting and mineral content. B deficiency and B excess symptoms are described for leaves, petioles, central stems, and fruit. Mineral contents of leaves, petioles, and fruits are presented and discussed. Fruits receiving 0.05 p/m B in the nutrient solution were preferred. The critical level of B appears to be about 20 p/m in the petioles and leaves, whereas excess B occurred at about 70 and 300 p/m, respectively, for petioles and leaves. Quality components of the fruits are based on taste panel evaluation.

Rose production is limited by salinity and highly affected by the nitrogen source present in the nutrient solution. The influence of sodium on several aspects of nutrition has been investigated in ‘Lambada' rose plants using different sources of nitrogen in the fertilization treatment. Experiments using a previously defined mono-shoot model plant and a simplified hydroponic culture allowed us to study the effects of salinity v. nitrogen on NPK uptake during the culture period. Mineral concentrations, nitrate reductase (NR) and glutamine synthetase (GS) activities were also analysed. This study showed that rose plants were more sensitive to saline conditions under NH4+ fertilization without detectable effects on growth or in NPK mineral contents in shoots. Parameters affected most were enzymatic activities analysed such as leaf nitrate reductase activity which was reduced under NH4+ nutrition. Leaf glutamine synthetase was also enhanced by saline conditions. The Na/K ratio showed that under NH4+ nutrition, the highest sodium accumulation occurred in roots. Nitrate uptake did not show a clear pattern related to nitrogen source, however, ammonium uptake was affected by salinity when NH4+ was the sole nitrogen source in the nutrient solution. Potassium and phosphate uptake were always lower when NH4+ was present in the nutrient solution.
