Aluminium increased the concentrations of P and K in the roots and K in the tops of most of the cultivars tested. Al tolerant triticale retained a lower concentration of Mg in the roots and tops than the Al sensitive triticale when subjected to Al stress. In addition, Al treatments resulted in smaller increases in root P for the Al tolerant triticale than for the Al sensitive T2 - Plant and Soil ER -
