Root growth and physiological root traits as affected by Fe and P nutritional regimes in B73 and Mo17. (A) Root anatomy and root concentrations of (B) Fe, (C) P, or root-to-shoot translocation rates of (D) Fe and (E) P as determined by collecting xylem sap. Plants were grown for 15 days in nutrient solution supplemented without Fe and P (Fe0P0), without Fe and with 100 μM P (Fe0P100), with 100 μM Fe and without P (Fe100P0) or with 100 μM Fe and 100 μM P (Fe100P100). Fe and P treatments were initiated after one week of preculture on full nutrient solution. Bars indicate means ± SD, n = 5. Different letters denote significant differences at p < 0.05.
