Other claims from this paper (16)

Intervention effect Root aluminum concentration rose threefold across the 0 to 3.00 mM aluminum treatments.
Observation Aluminum was not detected in shoots.
Intervention effect Root plasma membrane H+ ATPase activity declined after 0.33 mg L‐1 Al.
Intervention effect Root membrane permeability increased up to 1.00 mM Al.
Intervention effect Root and shoot biomass declined after 0.33 mM Al treatment.
Observation Most root element concentrations peaked at 0.33 mM Al, except K, Mn and Zn.
Intervention effect Root potassium increased continuously from 0 to 3.00 mM Al.
Intervention effect Root iron decreased above 0.33 mM Al.
Intervention effect Most measured shoot nutrients declined above 0.33 mM Al, except N, Mn and Fe.
Observation Shoot calcium and magnesium showed little variation with Al.
Observation Maximum net uptake of most mineral nutrients occurred by 0.33 mM Al, except Mn.
Intervention effect Translocation of P, K, Mn and Zn declined above 0.33 mM Al.
Intervention effect Translocation of N and Ca declined with any added Al.
Observation Mg and Fe translocation showed no clear trend.
Intervention effect Electrolytic conductance did not rise significantly across 0 to 3.00 mM Al.
Mechanism The authors infer that inhibited root-to-shoot translocation is not directly caused by increasing membrane degradation.

M Wang; B Van Duijn; A W Schram FEBS Letters 1991. doi:10.1016/0014-5793(91)80086-i

Other claims from this paper (5)

Observation Basal cytosolic calcium in barley aleurone protoplasts was about 200 nM.
Intervention effect ABA lowered cytosolic calcium dose-dependently to about 50 nM.
Intervention effect La3+ and Cd2+ inhibited the ABA-induced cytosolic calcium decrease dose-dependently.
Intervention effect Verapamil and nifedipine did not inhibit the ABA-induced calcium decrease.
Mechanism The authors interpret the calcium decline as consistent with ABA activation of plasma membrane Ca2(+)-ATPase.
