The significance for development of water supply, osmotic relations and nutrition

  • Chapter
Differentiation and Development / Differenzierung und Entwicklung

Abstract

Although it is well known that the continued growth of a plant is dependent on an adequate supply of water and various nutrients, it is less widely recognised that changes in the availability of water, or in the amount or proportion of nutrient substances, can have considerable effects on the detailed course of development. The importance of the nutritional balance, in particular the proportion of organic materials to inorganic substances, was emphasized at a relatively early date by both Goebel (1908) and Klebs (1903, 1904), while Laurent (1904, 1907) and Molliard (1907a) stressed the role of the internal osmotic concentration. During recent years, more attention has been focussed on the part played by hormones, and spectacular results have been achieved; but it should be pointed out that some of the effects attributed to hormones may find a simpler explanation on a nutritional basis1. It is also likely that certain undoubted responses to the supply of hormones may be secondary consequences of the diversion of nutrients rather than a direct reaction to the hormone itself. Furthermore, it has been shown that the effects produced by an individual hormone are dependent not only on the concentration of that hormone, but also on the concentration of the available nutrients (Skoog 1954).
