Seedlings of eleven varieties of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) showed differences in utilization of K+ from a full nutrient solution containing 3.0 mM K+. The K+ content of both roots and shoots was proportional to the fresh weights and dry weights after a week in the nutrient solution. The K+ use-efficiency ratio, which indicates the efficiency of nutrient utilization (mg dry weight produced per mg K+ absorbed), differed significantly among the varieties. There was no correlation between influx of Rb+ and the content of K+. It is suggested that there are wide varietal differences in such genetically-determined properties as ion influx
