Use of high-resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy in the study of trace element transport in plants
Description
The long distance transport of elements through a stempart into the leaf of tomato plants is studied. A model is presented describing the element transport under non-steady state conditions. Measurements of the simultaneously applied gamma-ray emitting tracers where carried out semicontinuously by gamma-ray spectroscopy. The observations show the complexity of the transport system in plants but, above all, prove the applicability of gamma-ray spectroscopy in research on element fluxes in plants. 11 references, 2 figures, 2 tables
