The Article also contains errors in Table 1 where the heading ‘Roots’ was incorrectly produced as a standard row. The correct Table 1 appears below.

Table 1.

Mineral nutrient concentrations in mg g−1 DW in source leaves at 49 days after onset of the treatment (three days before root harvest) and in roots at harvest (55 days after onset of the treatment) (n = 4) (Experiment 1). ‘Mg low’ = 5 µM Mg; ‘Mg med’ = 100 µM Mg; ‘Mg high’ = 500 µM Mg. K = potassium, Ca = calcium, P = phosphorus, S = sulphur, B = boron, Fe = iron, Mn = manganese, Na = sodium, Zn = zinc. Mean ± SE values. Capitals = significant differences between ‘Mg low’, ‘Mg med’, and ‘Mg high’ plants. No indication = not significant. P < 0.05.
