Data on (1) permitivity and dielectric losses, (2) free radical concentrations, and (3) potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, nitrogen, and amino acid contents in tissues of nodal roots, internodes, and leaves of maize plant are presented in the paper. The participation of these factors in the transport phenomenon and the degree of their cooperation in the transport process are discussed.
