Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Aluminium below 2 mM had no significant effect on mungbean epicotyl length.
- Intervention effect 5 mM Al inhibited epicotyl elongation in intact seedlings.
- Intervention effect 6–3A treatment did not significantly change epicotyl length in seedlings.
- Intervention effect 1 mM Al markedly decreased epicotyl length in cuttings.
- Intervention effect 5 mM Al markedly decreased epicotyl length in cuttings.
- Intervention effect 6‐BA significantly increased epicotyl elongation in cuttings treated with 0.05 mM Al.
- Intervention effect 6‐BA significantly increased epicotyl elongation in cuttings treated with 1 mM Al.
- Intervention effect 6‐BA only slightly increased epicotyl elongation in cuttings treated with 5 mM Al.
- Intervention effect Al above 1 mM increased soluble protein concentration in seedling epicotyls.
- Intervention effect 6‐BA significantly increased soluble protein concentration in epicotyls with 0.05 mM Al.
- Intervention effect 6‐BA significantly increased soluble protein concentration in epicotyls with 1 mM Al.
- Mechanism The authors infer that high Al inhibits epicotyl elongation through toxicity mechanisms other than insufficient cytokinin export.
