p-Fluorophenylalanine-Induced Restriction of Ion Uptake and Assimilation by Maize Roots.
Roots of decapitated maize seedlings (Zea mays L.) were exposed for 12 hours to 1.0 millimolar KNO(3) (98.5 atom per cent (15)N) in the presence and absence (control) of 0.1 millimolar p-fluorophenylalanine (FPA), an analog of the amino acid phenylalanine. FPA decreased nitrate uptake but had little effect on potassium uptake. In contrast, accumulation of both ions in the xylem exudate was grea...
متن کاملCadmium-induced sulfate uptake in maize roots.
The effect of cadmium (Cd) on high-affinity sulfate transport of maize (Zea mays) roots was studied and related to the changes in the levels of sulfate and nonprotein thiols during Cd-induced phytochelatin (PC) biosynthesis. Ten micromolar CdCl(2) in the nutrient solution induced a 100% increase in sulfate uptake by roots. This was not observed either for potassium or phosphate uptake, suggesti...
متن کاملThe Urease Inhibitor NBPT Negatively Affects DUR3-mediated Uptake and Assimilation of Urea in Maize Roots
Despite the widespread use of urease inhibitors in agriculture, little information is available on their effect on nitrogen (N) uptake and assimilation. Aim of this work was to study, at physiological and transcriptional level, the effects of N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) on urea nutrition in hydroponically grown maize plants. Presence of NBPT in the nutrient solution limited the c...
متن کاملUptake of rb and k by excised maize roots.
Radioactive isotopes are valuable tools for investigating the uptake and transport of ions by biological material. Their use as tracers provide results that often can be obtained only by such a technique. The reliability of isotopes as tracers, however, is sometimes implicitly accepted. Although the pitfalls are widely known, they are often ignored. The hazards were emphasized for us in the use...
متن کاملHeavy metal stress and sulfate uptake in maize roots.
ZmST1;1, a putative high-affinity sulfate transporter gene expressed in maize (Zea mays) roots, was functionally characterized and its expression patterns were analyzed in roots of plants exposed to different heavy metals (Cd, Zn, and Cu) interfering with thiol metabolism. The ZmST1;1 cDNA was expressed in the yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) sulfate transporter mutant CP154-7A. Kinetic analysi...
