Under certain stress conditions roots exude organic molecules, which may facilitate the uptake of nutrients. The objective of this research was to identify and measure the effect of low P upon the exudation of organic acids by roots of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) seedlings. Surface-sterilized alfalfa seeds were grown aseptically in sterile sand using an apparatus specially designed for the addition of +/-P nutrient solutions and for the collection of root exudates. Citric, malic, and succinic acids were detected in the root exudates of 24-day-old alfalfa seedlings. Citrate exudation from the roots of P-stressed alfalfa was 182% that of plants receiving a complete nutrient solution. The increased release of citrate may provide a mechanism by which P-stressed plants enhance the availability of P in the rhizosphere.
