Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Plants on high magnesium showed no macroscopical or organelle ultrastructural alterations.
- Observation Low-magnesium plants had most chloroplasts and mitochondrial membranes altered.
- Observation Infected plants on low magnesium had an ageing aspect.
- Association Infected low-magnesium plants had chloroplast and mitochondrial alterations similar to non-infected low-magnesium plants.
- Observation Spiroplasma cells in infected low-magnesium plants were found in phloem cells, outside the cytoplasm.
- Observation Spiroplasma cells in infected high-magnesium plants were located inside the cytoplasm.
- Association Infected high-magnesium plants showed symptoms and ultrastructural alterations similar to non-infected low-magnesium plants.
- Mechanism Results suggest that magnesium is involved in the maize-spiroplasma interaction.
