Abstract:The physico-chemical properties of iron plaques formed on the root surfaces ofCmarex cinerascensunder laboratory conditions were determined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (EDS) analysis. Iron plaques were present as an amorphous coating on root surfaces with an uneven distribution. EDS analysis showed that iron plaques were composed of Fe , Si, Al and lesser amounts of Ca in plaqued root surfaces.
