PHOSPHATE ACCUMULATION BY COLONIES OF NOSTOC

B. A. WHITTON

Department of Botany, University of Durham England

  1. Evidence was obtained which supports the hypothesis that the firm colonies of Nostoc verrucosum, but not the softer ones of N. commune, can accumulate phosphate from the environment by non-active means.
  2. This accumulation of phosphate was reduced by pre-treating the colonies with chelating agents, whilst the presence of CaCl2 in the medium led to an increase.
