Table 3.

Effect of Al exposure on the degree of cell wall methylation after 0, 24, 48 and 96 h

Treatment time (h) Degree of cell wall methylation (%)
0 µm Al 200 µm Al 1000 µm Al
0 92 (±0.5) 92 (±0.5) 92 (±0.5)
24 88 (±1.2) 83 (±1.3) 77 (±2.1)
48 87 (±1.1) 96 (±2.4) 93 (±1.9)
96 90 (±1.0) 94 (±2.2) 97 (±4.3)

Values are the arithmetic mean (with the s.d.) of two experimental replicates (each replicate contains 300–400 apical root tips) and are expressed on a dry mass basis.
