Measurement of Net Fluxes of Ammonium and Nitrate at the Surface of Barley Roots Using Ion-Selective Microelectrodes

Abstract: Neutral carrier-based liquid membrane ion-selective microelectrodes for NH4+ and N03-were developed and used to investigate inorganic nitrogen acquisition in two varieties of barley, Hordeum vulgare L. cv Olli and H. vulgare L. cv Prato, originating in cold and warm climates, respectively. In the present paper, the methods used in the fabrication of ammonium-and nitrate-selective microelectrodes are described, and their application in the study of inorganic nitrogen uptake is demonstrated. Net ionic fluxes of … Show more

“…The fabrication and characteristics of N03--selective microelectrodes, as well as the microelectrode system used to determine net ionic fluxes at the surface of intact roots, have been described previously (Henriksen et al, 1990(Henriksen et al, , 1992. Briefly, micropipets were pulled from 2.0-mm 0.d.…”

“…Plants to be used for net flux experiments were transfemed into the experimental chamber (Henriksen et al, 1990, figure 1; Henriksen et al, 1992, figure 2) at least 12 h before the start of an experiment. Nutrient solution from a 3-L reservoir was circulated through the chamber (130 mL volume) at 50 mL min-I.…”

“…A caveat of this approach is the assumption that the flow is equal at all points around the cylinder and along the shaft of the cylinder. An alternative is to calculate flux per unit length by dividing by r  2 (Henriksen et al, 1992).…”
