Abstract
The absorption of32P-phosphate (KH2PO4-0.1 mM) was studied with discs ofPelargonium zonale leaves, in relation to the age of the leaf, to the ageing process and in relation to the influence of GA3 and BAP. The results show that: i) the speed of absorption reaches a maximum which is characteristic of the adult phase (stage); ii) the “ageing” (washing during 24 h) induces a general increase in the absorption velocity which is dependent on the temperature of the ageing medium (optimum at 26 °C). On the other hand, ageing appears to be a process able to increase the physiological differences which are present before “ageing”. This phenomenon also appears in the case of the influence of phytohormones; iii) if BAP exercises a dose-dependent inhibitory action, in contrast, GA3 acts by increasing the velocity of the absorption which appears to be a process independent of the hormone concentration.
These results underline a phytohormonal specificity.
All these results are discussed in relation to hormone-directed transport, cell permeability and leaf senescence.
