Abstract
Abstract. In 2-year seasonal experiments (cultivation in peat), the effect of chelated and mineral forms of zinc on the yield of greenhouse lettuce and on the content of zinc, cop-per, manganese and iron in lettuce leaves were compared. The following zinc doses were applied: 10, 20, 30, and 60 mg dm-3 of substrate. Using both forms of zinc in the studied range, good and similar yields were obtained. Zinc application in the mineral form caused a twice greater zinc concentration in lettuce leaves and a higher concentration of manga-nese, while copper and iron showed smaller concentrations. Key words: lettuce, zinc chelate and zinc sulphate, content of micronutrients
