Changes in contents of different phosphorus reserves in seed (a) and podwall (b) and the activities of different phosphatases in seeds (c) and podwall (d) during pod development where Pi, water soluble inorganic phosphorus; Organic-P, water soluble organic phosphorus, phospholipid-P, phospholipid phosphorus fraction, ACP, acid phosphatase; AKP, alkaline phosphatase; 3PGAP, 3-phosphoglycerate phosphatase, PPP, pyrophosphate phosphatase; APHY, acid phytase; DAF, days after flowering. Phytic acid content is given in mg of phytic acid gm-1 DW while other phosphorus contents are given in umole of Pi gm-1 DW. Values are the mean ± S. D. of three replicates. Values marked with different letter (s) indicate significant differences at different DAF as according to Tukey’s test (p < 0.05)
