The root washings of water-cultured oat and rice (non-sterile) contained some sort of amphoteric, iron-solubilizing chelating (or complexing) compound(s), which could be separated into a "cationic fraction" by elution in a cation exchanger column with 1N NH_4OH. In oats, the release of the chelator into the washings greatly increased under iron-stress conditions. Under the same condition "iron-inefficient" rice plants also increased the release of the chelator, though to a much less extent than did the oats. Further examination of the "cationic fraction" revealed that this chelator may be a heat-stable, acid-hydrolyzable non-macromolecule of extraordinarily high polarity. In the absence of interfering ions, the chelator was able to solubilize hydrated Fe (III) oxide effectively within a range of pH 4 to 9. Its Fe-solubilizing action was inhibited by the presence of divalent metals, the extent being in the order, Cu>Co≧Zn>Mn>Ca (no inhibition).
