Research Abstract |
The research was carried out to clarify the mechanism of root growth stimulation induced by rhizospheric aluminum in woody plant root. Using Quercus serrata seedling grown hydroponically, auxin concentration and activity of nitrate reductase in root treated aluminum were higher than those of control. It was considered that stimulation of root growth induced by aluminum might be as results of these phenomena.
