Iron (Fe) is a major micronutrient and is required for plant growth and development.
Nongrass species have evolved a reduction‐based strategy to solubilize and take up Fe …

Reduction of Fe (III) to Fe (II) by Fe (III) chelate reductase is thought to be an obligatory step
in iron uptake as well as the primary factor in making iron available for absorption by all …

Root secretion of coumarin-phenolic type compounds has been recently shown to be related
to Arabidopsis thaliana tolerance to Fe deficiency at high pH. Previous studies revealed the …

Iron (Fe) is abundant in soils but generally poorly soluble. Plants, with the exception of
Graminaceae, take up Fe using an Fe (III)‐chelate reductase coupled to an Fe (II) …

Changes between iron redox states (ferrous or ferric) drive numerous reactions involving
electron transfer that are important for plants. However, there is great variaton in the …

Iron deficiency afflicts more than three billion people worldwide, and plants are the principal
source of iron in most diets. Low availability of iron often limits plant growth because iron …

Background Iron is an essential element for both plant productivity and nutritional quality.
Improving plant iron content was attempted through genetic engineering of plants …

I of young, lateral roots grown under iron deficiency, whereas the femcyanide reductase
(termed the standard reductase) was thought to be constitutively expressed in a11 root cells …

Although iron (Fe) is one of the most abundant elements in the earth's crust, its low solubility
in soils restricts Fe uptake by plants. Most plant species acquire Fe by acidifying the …

Iron is essential for plants but is not readily accessible and is also potentially toxic. As plants
are a major dietary source of iron worldwide, understanding plant iron homeostasis is pivotal …
