Effects of Temperature On Growth and Nutrient Uptake In Subterranean Clover During Recovery From Phosphorus Stress

Abstract

Subterranean clover plants (Trifolium 8ubterraneum L., cv. Mt. Barker) were grown in nutrient solutions with a deficient and an optimum phosphorus supply in three temperature regimes (27°0 day/22°0 night, 21/16°0, and 15/10°0). They were then transferred to full nutrient solutions (optimum phosphorus) and plants from each pretreatment grown for a further 7 days in each of the three temperature regimes.
