The ratio of K to Ca in thalli of several species of lichens occurring on various trees

Stanisława Kuziel

Abstract


The per cent contents of K and Ca in 7 species of lichens and in the bark: of trees and extracts from this bark were determined. The ratio K : Ca was calculated. In the particular species of lichens collected from the tree the K : Ca ratio varies from 0.05 to 4.93. In the thalli of one species collected from various species of trees the content of cations varies, but the K: Ca ratio is more or less constant in particular species.
