Abstract:Cobalt treatment of iron-stressed sugar beet plants resulted in leaf cobalt concentrations nearly three times as high as in cobalt-treated control plants. When iron-stressed plants were treated with cobalt and iron together, cobalt was transported into leaves in preference to iron. The transport system in iron-stressed sugar beet appears to be relatively specific for iron and cobalt because iron-stressed plants supplied with manganese, zinc, and copper did not transport these elements in similarly enhanced amo… Show more
