Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philippine Journal of Science, 1913, Vol. 8: Section C, Botany The Slight development Of conducting tissue in many water plants, together with the thinness of the epidermis, has led to a widespread belief that most submerged plants take nutrient salts largely if not entirely from the water in which the stems and leaves are floating, and that the roots serve only as organs of attachment. The conclusion that submerged plants absorb nu trient salts through the epidermis of the leaves and stems is, however, as pointed out by Pond,1 based on a priori rather than experimental grounds.
