The effect of 10<sup>-2</sup>-10<sup>-6</sup> M Mn<sup>+2</sup> on the growth and acidification of the incubation medium by <em>Zea mays</em> L. coleoptile segments was studied. It is shown that 10<sup>-5</sup>M manganese stimulated growth (in comparison to a control without Mn<sup>+2</sup>) while concentrations from 10<sup>-2</sup> to 10<sup>-4</sup>M clearly inhibited it. It was also found that manganese at the studied concentration range significantly inhibited acidification of the incubation medium. Auxin, at a concentration of 10<sup>-5</sup>M, reversed the inhibitory effect of Mn<sup>+2</sup> (with the exception of 10<sup>-2</sup>M) on the growth and acidification of the incubation medium by <em>Zea mays</em> L. coleoptile segments.

The absorption of foliarly applied tripolyphosphate is significantly greater in two different cytoplasmically male-sterile lines (Tcms and Ccms) of Zea mays L. than in isolines having normal (N) cytoplasm. A third cytoplasmic male-sterile (Scms) does not differ from the normal isoline in its absorption of foliarly applied tripolyphosphate. In none of the three comparisons of each of the cytoplasmic male-sterile lines and its normal isoline is there a difference in orthophosphate absorption, nor do any of the lines show a difference in the translocation of either source of phosphorus (P) inside the plant 10 days after application. The differential uptake of the large molecular P compound is not a property of all cytoplasmic male steriles, indicating that all cytoplasmic male steriles, do not have similar membrane permeability properties. Differences were found in the rate of absorption among lines for foliarly applied phosphates.

Maize (Zea mays L. cv. XL45) plants were grown from seed in controlled-environment rooms. Twice-daily weighings of the plants and containers for 7 days reduced height, and removing plants from the rooms for two 20-min periods daily for 7 days gave significant reductions in stem and leaf dry weights and total leaf area. Transpiration rates were not affected by either of these treatments. Short-term removal from the rooms (up to 10 min daily) produced no significant reductions in plant characteristics. Measuring leaf lengths daily for 10 days resulted in significant reductions in stem dry weight and plant height. It is suggested that control plants should always be subjected to the same degree of handling as treated plants.
