| Abstract/Contents: | "Root surface phosphatases of a serpentine and non-serpentine clone of Festuca rubra were assayed under a range of ionic concentrations based on those found in the soil solutions of the extremely toxic Meikle Kilrannoch serpentine. The phosphatases from the serpentine clone showed greatest activity in a solution similar to that in the soil and which had high concentrations of magnesium and nickel. The phosphatases from the non-serpentine clone were partially inhibited in the same solution. Changes in calcium and concentrations of micronutrients produced no significantly different responses between the clones in phosphatase activity. The results contrast with those obtained by previous workers on a serpentine and imply subtle enzymic adaptations leading to a requirement for simultaneously high concentrations of the potentially toxic ions, for high phosphatase activity. The ecological significance of the adapted phosphatases is unclear." |
