Differential Aluminum Tolerance of Two Wheat Varieties Associated with Plant‐Induced pH Changes Around Their Roots

Abstract: Differential Al tolerance of Atlas 66 and Menon wheat varieties in nutrient solutions and in acid Bladen soil was attributed, at least in part, to plant-induced differential pH changes around their roots.In nutrient solutions the Al-sensitive Monon variety lowered the pH and the Al-tolerant Atlas variety raised the pH, resulting in differences as large as 0.7 pH unit in the nutrient media.In acid Bladen soil this difference was much smaller, and a high root-to-soil ratio was necessary to produce observed pH di… Show more

“…In most of these experiments, pH in the culture solution was fixed when Al tolerance was examined. On the other hand, when wheat cultivars were grown in a medium in which the pH was not controlled, inhibition of growth by Al was positively correlated with the pH decrease in the medium (Foy et al 1965;Mugwira and Elgawhary 1979). These results indicate that the ability to change the rhizosphere pH is not always correlated with Al tolerance of plants, but that pH increase in the rhizosphere decreases the Al activity and thus prevents the root growth inhibition caused by Al toxicity in some plants.…”

“…Apparent plant tolerance can result from exclusion of toxic elements or metabolic tolerance to specific elements; the latter appears to be the more prevalent mechanism. Mechanisms for exclusion have been shown to include low root cation exchange capacities limiting uptake of Al and Mn (49), sorption of Zn to cell walls (50), and precipitation of Al by hydroxyl ions at the root surface (51,52).…”

“…Determinação da variabilidade espacial de alumínio em função da distribuição de argila em solos de Querência do Norte/Paraná, Brasil O semivariograma cruzado (Figura 4) que dispôs a relação entre as variáveis, mostrou um resultado melhor ajustado ao modelo gaussiano e apresentou dependência espacial entre o teor de alumínio e a argila até um alcance de 1600m, caso esse que se deve também ao fator extensão empregado na delimitação da grade de amostragem dos solos. Essa observação confirmou que a dependência espacial na distribuição granulométrica dos solos, na região de estudo, apresenta semelhança real sobre os níveis de alumínio determinados nas análises, corroborando a relação entre elementos apresentada por Foy et al (1965).…”

“…O alumínio é constituinte das partículas de argila do solo, ocorrendo a sua liberação para a fração trocável ou para a solução do solo, em situações onde o pH apresenta-se abaixo de 5,0 (FOY et al, 1965). A calagem corrige apenas as camadas superficiais do solo podendo o subsolo permanecer ainda ácido.…”
