Absorption of Copper, Zinc, and Manganese by Sugarcane Leaf Tissue

Abstract: Abstract. The absorption of Cu21, Zn2', and Mn2' by leaf tissue of 4-month old sugarcane plants (Saceharum officinarum L., var. H53-263) has been investigated. After the "apparent free space" fraction was desorbed, the absorption of Cu2+, Mn2 , and Zn2+ yielded a curve typical of many ion uptake processes when measured as a function of the external concentration. However, only 1 absorption mechanism was evident for each cation. The pH optimum for Cu2+ and Zn2+ uptake was 5.0 to 6.0, whereas that for Mn2+ absor… Show more

“…These findings agree with the close relationships between leaf and soil Mg and Ca levels for container-grown oranges (Martin & Page 1965, 1969, and with positive correlations between leaf and Soil Mg levels, and between leaf Ca and soil Ca, pH, and P for Valencia oranges (Anderson & Albrigo 1977).…”

“…Mg depresses Mn uptake (Lohnis 1960;Maas et al 1969) and Cu and Zn can strongly inhibit the uptake of one another (Schmid et al 1965;Bowen 1969). However, in leaves collected in 1976, there was a moderately strong positive correlation (0.64) between Mg and Mn levels, and a very strong positive correlation (0.92) between Cu and Zn levels.…”

“…As discussed by Kochian (1993), uptake of Zn 2ϩ is likely to be a thermodynamically passive process, driven by the inwardly directed negative membrane potential across the plasmalemma, and low-temperature uptake inhibition is likely to result indirectly from a reduction in the membrane potential. Low-temperature-induced reduction in Zn 2ϩ up- take was reported previously for sugarcane leaves (Bowen, 1969), barley roots (Schmid et al, 1965), and wheat roots (Chaudhry and Loneragan, 1972). The dramatic inhibition of Zn 2ϩ uptake by Ca (Fig.…”

“…As a means of estimating Zn 2ϩ binding to wheat root cell walls, uptake was measured in intact roots exposed to low temperatures during the uptake period. Low temperature has been shown to inhibit uptake of Zn 2ϩ in barley (Schmid et al, 1965) and sugarcane (Bowen, 1969).…”

“…Investigations of the forms of nutrient cations such as Fe, Cu, and Zn in leaf tissues of agronomic species (56,57) have shown these to be pr,esent as anionic complexes. Similarly, studies of the chemical forms of trace elements transported within the xylem (11,25,(37)(38)(39)(58)(59)(60)(61)(62) and phloem (63) show Ca, Fe, Ni, Mn, and Zn to be transported as organic complexes. In the case of nutrient ions, complexation may provide a basis for maintaining their mobility within the plant and allowing for their accumulation at sites of metabolic use.…”
