The relationship of proline accumulation to phosphorus content in oilseed rape

Janina Rogozińska, Stanisław Flasiński

Abstract


Phosphorus (P) deficiency in the medium caused proline accumulation in the leaves and stems of oilseed rape. This accumulation took place when the P level had decreased in the plant to ca 0.2% d.w. and proceeded very fast when the P content dropped below 0.1% d.w. The magnitude of proline accumulation depended strictly on the P level in the plant.

Keywords
