Cell wall pectin and its methyl-esterification in transition zone determine Al resistance in cultivars of pea (Pisum sativum)
The initial response of plants to aluminum (Al) is the inhibition of root elongation, while the transition zone is the most Al sensitive zone in the root apex, which may sense the presence of Al and regulate the responses of root to Al toxicity. In the present study, the effect of Al treatment (30 μ...
