Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Aluminum-sensitive Katepwa had very little root growth at low aluminum concentrations.
- Observation Aluminum-tolerant Alikat and Maringa had much greater root growth than Katepwa.
- Observation Segregation indicated one major gene controlling aluminum tolerance based on root growth.
- Intervention effect All three lines showed about a twofold rise in methionine incorporation in root tips after three days of aluminum.
- Intervention effect Maringa and Alikat root tips increased total protein content during aluminum stress.
- Intervention effect Katepwa root tips showed no increase in total protein content during aluminum stress.
- Observation Insoluble proteins were preferentially translated in all three lines during aluminum stress.
- Intervention effect Katepwa root-tip proteinase activity was 1.7-fold higher during aluminum stress.
- Intervention effect Maringa and Alikat showed no change in proteinase activity under aluminum stress.
- Mechanism The authors infer that aluminum-induced proteinase activity inhibits soluble protein accumulation in Katepwa.
