Plant-nutrient uptake studies with barley and soybeans were made at soil temperatures of 12/sup 0/, 22/sup 0/, and 32/sup 0/C. K, Ca, and Mg uptake were differentially stimulated and depressed by varying soil temperature. With increasing temperature, the K content of barley increased and then decreased and the K content of soybeans increased. Ca and Mg varied in an opposite way to K. The results indicate that the explanation for certain differences in leaves of field-grown orange trees may possibly lie in the soil temperature factor. 16 references, 2 tables.
