Certain disorders, causing a sort of chlorosis and necrosis of the foliage of coconut palms in Travancore-Cochin have been investigated by foliar analysis, for potassium,calcium, magnesium, phosphorous and nitrogen. 2. Statistical examination of the data of chiemical analysis of the leaflets from different fronds, From healthy trees as well as trees in diifferent stages of the disease, showed an accumulation of the nutrient factors in the leaves from diseased trees. 3. Different aspects concerning how far possible impaired physiological processes due to disease,or inadequate translocation from the. leaf to the other parts of the plant are responsible for the observed accumulation of nutrients in the diseased leaf tissue have been briefly discussed. 4. Further work from the point of view of plant physiological aspects is now in progress.enArticle
