We conducted hydroponic experiments growing soybean (Glycine max), rice (Oryza sativa),
and wheat (Triticum aestivum) under K and Ca replete conditions to establish the degree of …

This study assessed the relationships between external K+ supply and K+: Na+ ratios
associated with Na+ toxicity in Jatropha curcas. Plants were exposed to increasing external …

High-affinity Na+ uptake in plants and its mediation by HKT transporters have been studied
in very few species. This study expands the knowledge of high-affinity Na+ uptake in land …

An aquaponic system was designed to investigate the effects of foliar applications of
potassium (K) on mint, radish, parsley, and coriander growth and physiological …

The role of potassium (K+) transporters in high-and low-affinity K+ uptake was examined in
roots of intact barley (Hordeum vulgare) and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants by …

In general, foods with high K content are restricted to the patient with chronic kidney disease
but our daily diets including melons are rich in K. Thus, they cannot eat usual diets with other …
