摘要
Diurnal courses of nutrient transport in the xylem and their response to external availability of nutrients were studied, In soil culture, maximal concentrations in all analysed substances were observed during night-time. Over experimental periods of up to 20 d, concentrations of some ions increased, most by accumulation in the soil. Stringent nutrient conditions were established in a novel pressure chamber. An aeroponic nutrient delivery system inside allows the sampling of xylem sap from intact plants under full control of the nutrient conditions at the root. Analysis of xylem transport under these highly defined conditions established that (1) diurnal variations in concentrations and fluxes in the xylem are dominated by plant-internal processes; (2) concentrations of nutrients in the xylem sap are highly but specifically correlated with each other; (3) nitrate uptake and nitrate flux to the shoot are largely uncoupled; and (4) in continuous light, diurnal variations of xylem sap concentrations vanish. Step changes in nitrate concentrations of the nutrient solution established that (5) the concomitant increase in nitrate concentration and flux id the xylem is delayed by 2-3 h and is only transient. Diurnal variations of xylem sap composition and use of the new technique to elucidate xylem-transport mechanisms are discussed.
