Abstract
Effects or soil mechanical impedance on the development or Golgi apparatus in the root cap cells or maize were studied under controlled soil-water conditions. Heavily compacted soil (bulk density=1.50 g cm -3 ) had 3.3 to 3.4 times greater mechanical impedance than control soil (bulk density=1.33 g cm -3 ), but their oxygen diffusion rates were not significantly different. The number or dictyosomes and the number and area or secretory vesicles per unit area or tangentially sub-peripheral root cap cells in the heavily compacted soil increased compared to those in the control
