Influence of reducing and oxidating compounds on iron accumulation and chlorophyll content in oat leaves
Abstract
The influence of reducing-oxidating potentials, via the introduction of reducing or oxidating substances into the medium, on iron accumulation and chlorophyll content in oat leaves was investigated. Lowering of the redox potential increases iron accumulation and chlorophyll content in leaves and vice versa. Experiments demonstrated that the redox potential is one of the factors determining the availability and physiological activity of iron in plants.
