Abstract
PROF. H. TER MEULEN'S work on molybdenum in plants1 suggests some fundamental problems which will be best solved by spectrum analysis. The quantities of molybdenum recorded, 0.01–0.07 mgm. per kgm., are very much smaller than those in which other metals occur in plant tissues, and it is from a study of several elements, perhaps, that fundamental explanations may be discovered.
