Abstract/Contents: | "The tolerance of clones of Agrostis stolonifera from salt marsh and inland habitats to the chlorides of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium, magnesium and calcium was measured in water culture by a rooting index of tolerance technique. The salt marsh clone was always more tolerant than the inland clone. This was confirmed for LiCl, NaCl and KCI in separate experiments in which dry wt increments were measured. It is suggested that the evolution of tolerance to NaCl in the salt marsh clone has conferred cotolerance to the other alkali metal chlorides, and that the toxicity of LiCl, RbCl and CsCl at least, results from their cations and is not due to chloride ions nor to osmotic stress. Tolerance towards the two alkaline earth chlorides MgCl2 and CaCl2 was also examined. It is suggested that selection for MgCl2 tolerance may have taken place in the salt marsh clone, and that this tolerance has conferred tolerance to CaCl2." |
