  Calcium (45Ca2+) absorption inhibition by aluminum (AL3+) in sorghum roots
 
 
Title: Calcium (45Ca2+) absorption inhibition by aluminum (AL3+) in sorghum roots
Author: Wilkinson, R. E.

Contents: Calcium (45Ca2+) absorption by roots of four sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] cultivais decreased as aluminum (Al3+) concentration (0, 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 mM) increased. The data fit a logarithmic curve. Cultivars were Funk GS22DR, GP-10, SC574, and SC283. When plotted as percentages of the respective untreated test, the curves of the four cultivars were identical. Previously published ion carrier and ion channel inhibitor studies showed genetic differences in response to ion carrier and ion channel inhibitors. Uniformity of cultivar response to Al3+ shows that the Al3+ response was on the exterior side of the plasma membrane. Disruption of the Ca2+ mediated second messenger and metabolic control system by Al3+ would constitute a major Al3+ toxicity sensitivity system.
