Abstract
ABSTRACT The present work investigates the impact of phosphorus (P) starvation on plant growth, symbiotic nitrogen fixation, and internal P status (determined as extracted P fractions) of leaves, roots, and nodules of 27-days–old pea (Pisum sativum L) plants inoculated with Rhizobium leguminosarum bv viciae strain D293. The procedure of separation of organic and inorganic P compounds in 10% perchloric acid (HCLO4) and the absorption of nucleotides in active charcoal gave several fractions, containing different phosphorus compounds, which were extracted and determined as inorganic phosphate after combustion. These are acid soluble and insoluble P, sugar P, nucleotide P, and inorganic P. The P starvation of plants inhibited significantly plant dry mass accumulation, nodulation rate and specific nitrogenase activity of nodules. These results were accompanied with lower quantities of total P per plant, acid soluble and acid non-soluble P fractions in all plant organs. The inhibited accumulation of P in the acid soluble P fraction was associated with decrease of sugar, nucleotide and inorganic P in all plant organs. The most negatively affected were all P fractions extracted from nodules and leaves. The low content of inorganic P in the stressed plant tissues was regarded as primary reason for induced alterations in the content of analyzed P fractions.
