A SUBSTANTIAL amount of data is available which indicates that species and genotypes within species differ in the quantity of various minerals that they accumulate from solution or soil media. The literature dealing with this subject has been reviewed by Myers (6) and Vose (12). They report differential intraspecific uptake for 11 essential mineral elements and intraor interspecific differences in uptake for a similar number of non-essential elements. Studies concerned with inheritance of mineral uptake and utilization have been relatively few. Three studies have demonstrated that single genes may determine efficiency of utilization of mineral elements. Weiss (12) found that a single gene in soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) controlled efficient vs. inefficient utilization of iron. Classifica-
