Abstract
AbstractIndices of the differential adsorption of potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) were used to explain the differences in magnesium uptake by corn seedlings (Zea mays L.) grown on two widely different soils of the Rayne (a fine‐loamy, mixed, mesic Typic Hapludult) and the Hublersburg (a clayey, kaolinic, mesic Typic Hapludult) series. The differential adsorption of potassium was found to be the controlling factor in the uptake of magnesium by corn seedlings in these two soils. The differential adsorption concept may be useful in predicting which soils may or may not respond readily to magnesium fertilization.
