The distribution of essential nutrients such as potassium (K), phosphorous (P), calcium (Ca), sulfur (S) and chlorine (Cl) within root tissues is crucial aspect of plant growth but nothing is known regarding this subject in seedlings of dicotyledons such as peanut ( Arachis hypogaea ). We used scann...
