Abstract

The chemical elements N, P, K, Ca and Mg, although present in soil in great amounts, are hardly available to plants because they often occur in quite insoluble forms. Morever, in the soil and climate conditions of Poland, these elements are fairly lost due to leaching out. They must be therefore complemented in soil by introducing with fertilizers. Effective application of fertilizers, as well as reduction of their harmful effects upon soil, require the good knowledge of soil properties. In this work the content of Mg, Ca, K, P, Na and Cl of above-ground parts and roots of 2-week old seedlings of six winter rye varieties: Kier, Motto, Walet, Luco, Klawo and Nawid was determined. The seedlings were treated with NaCl applied at the concentrations of 0, 100, 150 and 200 mM. The salinity stress effected in the distinct decrease in the content of P, Ca, K and Mg, and in the increase in Na and Cl content. Slight differences in the content of particular elements between the rye varieties were found. Only var. Luco, which appeared to be most tolerant to salinity, contained relatively more calcium, potassium, phosphorus and magnesium, and the greatest amount of chlorine and sodium.
