✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Lemna minor L. was grown in aseptic culture solutions. With sodium chloride or lithium chloride in the solution, the plant increased in yield. Tolerance of Lemna minor to relatively high level of sodium explains the presence of this plant in brackish waters. A low quantity of potassium is required for optimal growth.

Sodium was added to nutrient solutions as chloride or sulphate. At equivalent levels the sodium content of the plant was somewhat higher under sulphate salinity.
