Physiology of Potassium Nutrition in Cereals: Fluxes, Compartmentation, and Ionic Interactions
Potassium (K+) is an essential nutrient and the most abundant cation in plant cells. Plants possess two transport systems for K+ acquisition: a high-affinity system (HATS), operating at external K+ concentrations ([K+]ext) below 1 mM, and showing reduced transport activity in the presence of ammoniu...
