Migration patterns of nutrient elements, viz. (59)Fe, (54)Mn, (65)Zn, and (86)Rb, supplied to young corn (Zea mays) leaves were studied using a modified chromatogram scanner. It was found that the isotopes supplied to one-half of the leaf did not migrate to the other side across the midrib, but moved generally toward the base of the applied part of the leaf.
