| Abstract: | P32 and C14 have been used together to identify and tgrace the photosynthates of Zea mays during the seedling stage. By this double labelling technique and single labelling with C14O2 and H3P32O4, carbohydrates, amino acids, and phosphoproteins were identified on paper chromatograms. Tables and figures summarise the results obtained under different mineral deficiency. These results indicate the effects of the absence of P, Mg, K, N, Ca, and trace elements on both respiration and photosynthesis. |
