Nitrate and Other Anions in the Rice Phloem Sap
Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tokyo Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113, Japan
The anionic composition was determined for pure rice phloem sap which had been collected from brown planthopper stylets by cutting them with a YAG laser beam. The most abundant inorganic anion was Cl at 52.1 mM. PO43 and SO42 were found at 8.1 mM and 1.8 mM, respectively. NO3 was present at 1.9 mM when the rice had been grown with nutrient solution containing 0.35 m of NO3 The phloem sap also contained malic, succinic and citric acid at 7.3, 3.0 and 3.2 mM respectively. Small amounts of other organic acids were also found.
