Abstract
Multivariate analysis of soil and plant data from the northern Mojave Desert was used to investigate aspects of the mineral nutrition of Larrea tridentata (Sesse & Moc. ex DC.) Cov. Larrea tridentata biomass was significantly correlated with soil NO3 and pH and leaf Fe content. Leaf cation accumulation was negatively correlated with leaf Fe concentration.
