Potassium Nutrition Affects Leaf Growth, Anatomy, and Macroelements of Guzmania
Guzmania lingulata (L.) Mez. ‘Cherry’ plants were grown in coconut husk chips. All plants were given 8 mM nitrogen (N), 2 mM phosphorus (P), 4 mM calcium (Ca), and 1 mM magnesium (Mg) at each irrigation with potassium (K) concentration at 0, 2, 4, or 6 mM. After 9 months, K concentration did not alter the number of new leaves, and shoot and root dry weights. Increasing K concentration did not a...
متن کاملOverexpression of the rice AKT1 potassium channel affects potassium nutrition and rice drought tolerance
Potassium (K(+)) is the most important cationic nutrient for all living organisms and has roles in most aspects of plant physiology. To assess the impact of one of the main K(+) uptake components, the K(+) inward rectifying channel AKT1, we characterized both loss of function and overexpression of OsAKT1 in rice. In many conditions, AKT1 expression correlated with K(+) uptake and tissue K(+) le...
متن کاملDehydroascorbate reductase affects leaf growth, development, and function.
Ascorbic acid (Asc) is a major antioxidant in plants that detoxifies reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintains photosynthetic function. Expression of dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), responsible for regenerating Asc from an oxidized state, regulates the cellular Asc redox state, which in turn affects cell responsiveness and tolerance to environmental ROS. Because of its role in Asc recyclin...
متن کاملLeaf Anatomy of the Goetzeaceae
ABSTRAcr A comparative study of the leaf anatomy ofthree species of three genera of Goetzeaceae (Henoonia, Goetzea, and Espadaea) revealed a number of characteristics common to all genera, viz. anomocytic stomata, sinuous anticlinal epidermal walls, both glandular and uniseriate nonglandular trichomes, crystal sand and druses in the mesophyll (often in the same cell), and intraxylary phloem. Th...
متن کاملEffect of potassium level on site of absorption of magnesium and other macroelements in sheep.
Eighteen wether lambs, surgically equipped with abomasal and ileal cannulae, were used in two metabolism trials. Two levels of dietary Mg (.1 and .2%) and three levels of K (.6, 2.4 and 4.8%, dry basis) were fed with a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement. Each trial consisted of a 10-d preliminary period, a 7-d collection of feed, feces and urine for determining mineral balance and a 6-d sampling of fe...
