Content of Adenosine Phosphate Compounds in Pea Roots Grown in Saline Media

RESUMO
The levels of ATP, ADP and AMP, the activity of phosphatases, and the ability for oxidative phosphorylation were studied in roots of pea (Pisum sativum) plants grown in media salinized either with NaCl or Na2SO4. In response to salinity, the ATP level in the roots decreased, whereas the ADP level increased slightly. As a result, the ADP:ATP ratio in the tissue increased with increasing salinity in the growth medium. The AMP level in the tissue was not affected by salinity.
