K and Cell Elongation/ExtensionK and Cell Elongation/Extension
In most cases, cell extension is the consequence of the accumulation of K in the cells that is required for both stabilizing the pH of the cytoplasm and increasing the osmotic potential in vacuoles.
Cell elongation by GA is Cell elongation by GA is dependent on K supplydependent on K supply
![Page 6: POTASSIUM IN PLANT GROWTH AND YIELD](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020116/55a73baf1a28abdb258b4673/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Potassium is essentially needed for cell elongationPotassium is essentially needed for cell elongation
Potassium is essential for GA3 (gibberellin)-induced cell elongation/extension, especially under deep-seeding conditions(seedling establishment!!!)
Potassium is needed for turgor potential to avoid drought stress in arid environment
Potassium and GA act synergistically in elongating cells
(Chen et al., 2001; Plant Cell Environ. 24: 469-476)

Auxin-stimulated cell elongation is also dependent on presence of potassium.
There is a strong correlation between expression of K-channel proteins and cell elongation following application of auxin

The transport of K+ across the plasma membrane and tonoplast causes the turgor changes of guard cells. Stomata open when guard cells accumulate potassium (red dots), which lowers the cells’ water potential and causes them to take up water by osmosis. The cells become turgid.

ConclusionsConclusions
Potassium has several critical roles in plant growth and yield formation including cell elongation, maintenance of turgor pressure and photosynthesis, stomatal closure, protein synthesis and photoassimilate transport.
Potassium transporter proteins play critical role in K uptake and translocation (contributing to cell elongation) and tolerance to Na toxicity
![Page 41: POTASSIUM IN PLANT GROWTH AND YIELD](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020116/55a73baf1a28abdb258b4673/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Plants exposed to high light intensity or grown under long-term sunlight conditions like in southern countries in Northern Hemisphere have much larger K requirement
Improving K nutritional status of plants is a major contributing factor to the protection of plants from environmental stress factors under marginal conditions
