Abstract
It has been established that mannitol infiltrated in a vacuum into plant tissues increased the oxygen uptake. No lag phase appearing subsequently to its infiltration by the transpiration stream (Trip, Nelson, Keotkov 1963) was observed. Our results may support the opinion that the mentioned lag phase is caused by the slow penetration of mannitol into the plant cells.
Abstract
Bolo zistené, źe manitol vakuove infiltrovaný do rastlinnýcb pletiv zvyŝoval spotrebu kyslika. Pritom sme nepozorovali lag fázu, ktorá sa objavuje po jeho infiltrácii transpiracnym prúdom (Tkip, Nelson, Krotkov 1963). Naśe výsledky by mohli podporovaÜ názor, ze uvedená lag fáza je spósobená pomalou penetráciou manitolu do buniek rastlm.
