Abstract : Accumulation of Na+, Cl- and SO42- was studied in young and fully grown trees of 5 varieties of Mangifera indica grown in 2 orchards. Langra and Bombay Green accumulated the ions in toxic amounts while Dashehari and Chausa appeared to have some ability to exclude them. Fully grown trees accumulated more salts than did young trees.
