abstract plant species differ in their ability to grow at low available p soils in other words, plant species differ in p use efficiency at low p supply. this ability can be investigated by comparing p uptake efficiency of plants and relative effective factors. a pot experiment was carried out in the growth chamber and sugar beet, maize and groundnut were grown in a low available p soil in a co...

A novel technique was developed to spatially map the phosphorus net influx capacity in intact root systems. The method is based on digital autoradiography and permits the quantification of phosphorus influx at high spatial resolution (2 mm). Roots of 18-d-old common bean plants were exposed to (32)P-labelled orthophosphate, quickly frozen, excised, lyophilized, scanned, and exposed to a storage...

A balanced supply of essential nutrients is an important factor influencing root architecture in many plants, yet data related to the interactive effects of two nutrients on root growth are limited. Here, we investigated the interactive effect between phosphorus (P) and magnesium (Mg) on root growth of Arabidopsis grown in pH-buffered agar medium at different P and Mg levels. The results showed...

Hypocalcemia and hypophosphatemia are common complications after parathyroidectomy (PTX). Sudden removal of high circulating levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) causes decreased osteoclastic resorption resulting in a decreased bone remodeling space. These phenomena are likely due to an increased influx of calcium and phosphorus into bone. However, there are currently no data to support this hyp...

Understanding available phosphorus (P) turnover could improve sustainable P management. An isotope tracing 33P was used to measure daily rates and exchangeable (E) in deficient, balanced, excess soils from a long-term site. Turnover under deficient conditions characterised by the lowest flux predominantly into pools (P efflux). The efflux soil 3.7 ± 0.6 mg P/L day−1 inverse influx) 1.6 0.4 day−...

The extent, time course, and reversibility of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake secondary to cellular Ca2+ influx stimulated by massive Na+ efflux were evaluated by electron probe microanalysis of rabbit portal vein smooth muscle. Strips of portal vein were Na+ loaded for 3 hours at 37 degrees C in a K+-free 1 mM ouabain solution, after which rapid Na+ efflux was induced by washing with a Na+-free K+-L...

We tested the hypotheses that with the onset of cerebral ischemia, massive cellular sodium influx does not occur until adenosine triphosphate is fully depleted and that on reperfusion, neuronal sodium efflux does not occur until adenosine triphosphate is fully restored. We examined the temporal relationships among transcellular sodium, energy metabolism, and intracellular pH with sodium and pho...
