Abstract
Large quantities of both organic and inorganic metabolites may be leached from a great diversity of plants by rain, dew, and mist. The leaching of inorganic cations apparently involves diffusion and exchange reactions with the leaching solutions on the leaf surface. Metabolites leached from one plant can be redistributed to other plants. This recycling has important implications as in plant nutrition, adaptation, distribution, and susceptibility to disease.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
