Sulfur was at the basis of early life on earth as an energy source and as a reactant in
biochemical processes. Remnants of this life under reducing atmospheric conditions are …

Sulfur, one of the vital macroelements, is present in nature in several redox forms (S+ Vl, S+
IV, S'11, S). In most organic compounds sulfur is pre sent in the reduced form (S'11), while …

Sulfur is an essential element for plant growth, and plant requirements for sulfur are closely
linked to nitrogen availability and growth rate. Adaptive mechanisms exist to optimize supply …

Trans-membrane movement of sulfate is a fundamental process that controls delivery of
sulfate to sulfur assimilatory pathways. It is facilitated primarily by the members of the …

A book on sulfur research is highly justified at present as there has been, in the last
decades, renewed research interest in S-biology in plants aimed at a better understanding …

Sulfate transporters are integral membrane proteins controlling the flux of sulfate (SO42–)
entering the cells and subcellular compartments across the membrane lipid bilayers. Sulfate …

▪ Abstract Sulfur is essential for life. Its oxidation state is in constant flux as it circulates
through the global sulfur cycle. Plants play a key role in the cycle since they are primary …

Sulfur is essential in all organisms for the synthesis of amino acids cysteine and methionine
and as an active component of numerous co-factors and prosthetic groups. However, only …

The International Plant Sulfur Workshop series was initiated in order to bring together
scientists from various research disciplines and to discuss all aspects of sulfur metabolism …

Sulfur is essential for plant growth and functioning. Sulfate taken up by the roots is the
primary sulfur source for growth, but additionally plants are able to utilize absorbed sulfur …
