Role of mycorrhizas in the mineral nutrition of host plants Mycorrhizas are very important in the uptake of nutrients such as P‚ N‚ K‚ Cu‚ Zn and Ca by plants especially in soils low in these nutrients. Since P is the most limiting nutrient in tropical soils‚ mycorrhizas are vital for improving P nutrition particularly for cultivated plants. External hyphae can absorb and translocate P to the host from soil outside the root depletion zone. The thin mycorrhizal hyphae (2-4 μm in diameter) are able

Plant Hemoglobin Hemoglobin is a protein-iron compound found within the red blood cells of most vertebrates and is responsible for the cell’s red pigment. These red blood cells carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the tissue cells throughout the rest of the body. Just as hemoglobin transports oxygen in humans‚ they have also been found transporting oxygen within plants. In plants‚ there are two types of hemoglobin that can be found; symbiotic and non symbiotic. Oxygen is used

non-native plant in Southern California I research some information of Iris Pseudacorus which is commonly known as Yellowflag Iris. It is native to Europe‚ Western Asia‚ and northwest Africa. Especially‚ Pseudacours is one of two iris species native to British Island. It was brought to Canada and the U.S in the early 1900s in order to use as an erosion control plant such as used in sewage treatment cells. In recent decade‚ the plant is used in landscaping and sold through garden and plant dealers

CHAPTER 36 PLANT CELLS The first barrier to form between daughter cells is the middle lamella. Daughter cells expand to their final size and make polysaccharides for a primary wall. After expansion stops waterproofing materials are added for a secondary wall. Water and dissolved materials move from cell to cell by way of pit pairs. A pit is a thin spot in the primary wall where the secondary wall is absent or separated from the primary wall by a space. Strands of cytoplasm called

Effects of Wavelength and Light Intensity on Photosynthetic Activity ABSTRACT The photosynthetic process of eukaryotes revolves around chlorophyll‚ the substance that give plants their green color. Plants convert light energy into chemical energy by means of photosynthesis. This experiment tests the reaction rates of a chloroplast suspension against variables of wavelengths and light intensity. Both a control and an experimental cuvette were exposed to a range of 450 to 750nm of light and varying

PLANT BODY Two Categories of Plant cells: 1.) Meristematic cells – embryonic‚ undifferentiated and capable of cell division • Apical meristem – located at root and shoot ends • Lateral meristem – run parallel to the long axis of roots and stems – where somatic cells undergo mitosis 2.) Differentiated/Permanent Cells – specialized in structure and usually do not divide • Simple Permanent Tissue – dermal tissue system and ground tissue system › Dermal tissue system – outer surfaces of
