Abstract
Edaphic ecotypes ofTeucrium scorodonia have been shown which differ in their susceptibility to lime-induced chlorosis. Plants especially resistant or susceptible to lime-induced chlorosis were found to be similarly resistant or susceptible to iron-deficiency chlorosis. Differences were found in the chlorophyll-iron and dry weight-chlorophyll relationships of the leaves of green and chloroticTeucrium plants, similar effects being produced by growth on a calcareous soil, in iron-deficient culture or by bicarbonate treatment. Chlorotic leaves had less chlorophyll per unit iron but had a greater dry weight per unit chlorophyll than green material. Chlorotic leaves were found to be reduced in both leaf area and dry weight compared with green ones, the reduction in dry weight being the greatest. Common root abnormalities were noted in chlorotic material induced by the above three methods.
