Potassium in crop physiology

Potassium in crop physiologyPotassium is an essential plant nutrient. This chapter describes the physiological roles of potassium: in activating enzymes, as a cellular osmoticum, and as a counter cation for anion accumulation and electrogenic transport processes. The chapter then describes the molecular biology of potassium uptake and redistribution in plants. The chapter highlights the contrasting potassium requirements of different crops and describes substantial heritable
