Extracted text: DID YOU KNOW...One of the main components of gum is Xylem. The chemical composition of xylem sap is most often determined and compared with that of the aqueous soil extracts around the tree source. In Muschelkalk soil, carbon, nitrogen, and calcium are present in the greatest concentrations. Sulfur, boron, magnesium, sodium, and potassium were greatest in Keuper, and the concentrations in Loess soil were intermediate. Potassium is often the dominant cation in xylem sap and is greatest in plants grown on Keuper. In xylem sap, nitrate is normally the major anion, followed by malate. Nitrate concentration was greatest in plants grown on Muschelkalk, while malate was greater in plants grown on Keuper. Chloride, sulfate, and phosphate concentration in sap were increased by fertilizer treatment.
