Effects of Al treatments on the growth of different cereal seedlings. Plants were grown for 7 days in 0.5 mMCaS0 4 + 50 / 1MAICI3 solution as indicated on the graph, pH was 4.1. All data show the means±SD (n=8). Figure 2 shows the effect of short-term (6h) Al exposure on K +( 8 6Rb) influx of the roots and transport toward the shoots in different cereal seedlings at pH 4.1. From the data it is visible that Al treatments increased the K +( 8 6Rb) influx in roots in comparison with control plants. It is noteworthy that Al-induced K7( 8 6Rb) transport toward the shoot in rye was more moderate than in the other species. Figure 2.

After the 7 t h day the seedlings were treated for 6h with 1 mM K (* 6Rb)Cl + 0.5 mM CaCl 2 + AICI3 solution as indicated on the graph, pH value was 4.1. All data show the means±SD (n=8).
