Leaf SPAD index values and root FeIII-chelate reductase activity

Sample SPAD indexa FeIII-chelate reductase (mol g-1 root FW h-1)b
Fe-sufficient 29.5 ± 0.3 0.37 ± 0.04

Fe-deficient 16.8 ± 0.6 1.41 ± 0.06

aSPAD index value of fully expanded young leaves was determined using a SPAD-502 meter (Minolta, Osaka, Japan); mean and SD using data of the three biological replicates.
