Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Arsenate growth inhibition developed slowly, with onset related to concentration.
- Method / resource Steady growth rate estimates gave different arsenate inhibition estimates from total growth measures.
- Intervention effect Low arsenate concentrations inhibited growth without inhibiting stem respiration.
- Intervention effect High arsenate concentrations inhibited respiration only after prolonged exposure.
- Intervention effect Two per cent sucrose did not alter arsenate inhibition of stem growth.
- Intervention effect Sucrose stimulated respiration in stem sections.
- Intervention effect Arsenate prevented sucrose stimulation of stem respiration.
