Redox potential gradients in the flower
- 1 Institute of Cereal Crops, Kroměříž, Czechoslovakia
Distinct redox gradients were found in flowers and stalks of some plants. The ovary was found to be the most negative part in the whole pistil and more negative than the coloured perigon or corona leaves. These redox differences are in accordance with biopotential differences obtained in flowers by other authors.
