Silver ions disrupt K(+) homeostasis and cellular integrity in intact barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) roots

The heavy metals silver, gold, and mercury can strongly inhibit aquaporin-mediated water flow across plant cell membranes, but critical examinations of their side effects are rare. Here, the short-lived radiotracer (42)K is used to demonstrate that these metals, especially silver, profoundly change...
