59Fe-labelled FeCl3 or FeEDTA was supplied to a 3-cm-long zone at various distances (0-18 cm) from the root tip of 7-day-old maize seedlings grown in nutrient solution. When FeEDTA was supplied in the presence of P, accumulation of Fe was approximately the same in all root zones and distribution of Fe in other root zones and in the shoot was uniform.
