The mineral content of various clones of white clover when grown on different soils
1942
Robinson, R.R.
Eight clones of white clover were increased vegetatively and grown in the greenhouse on five widely different soils. Yields of dry matter and the contents of calcium, phosphorus, and potassium were determined. Marked differences were obtained in both yields of dry matter and in the mineral content of the different clones. Clones that were relatively high in calcium on one soil were also relatively high in calcium on other soils. Relative differences in phosphorus and in potassium content tended to be maintained on different soils, but the agreement was not as close as in the case of calcium. No relation was found between the mineral content of the clones and their ability to grow at low levels of lime and phosphate.
