Luxury uptake of magnesium by peas, Pisum sativum

Abstract: Increasing the magnesium (Mg) concentration of vegetables (biofortification) will often require 'luxury' uptake where the whole-plant concentration of Mg (c p ) is greater than required for maximum yield. Our aim was to quantify some of the physiological factors influencing luxury uptake of Mg to aid subsequent development of agronomic techniques for biofortification. Peas, Pisum sativum, were used as a test species. A sand culture experiment related vegetative growth and c p for plants grown with a range of M… Show more

“…Second we analyse uptake during Phase 3 at a more mechanistic level. For this we use a simple model of uptake including feedback control (Reid et al , ). The model is first parameterised separately for nitrate, using results for treatments that varied nitrate supply only, and for K using results from treatments that varied K supply only.…”

“…Mn is present in peas in very small quantities (14–15 mg/g), yet its role in growth, development and crop formation is indispensable [ 17 ]. This element actively participates in photosynthesis and various physiological processes, being a constituent of numerous ribosomes, chloroplasts, and enzymes [ 18 ].…”
