Manganese (Mn) and iron (Fe) are essential mineral micronutrients for plants and their
deficiency and or toxicity represents a serious agricultural problem. In rice the information …

Manganese (Mn) is an essential micronutrient for plants playing an important role in many
physiological functions. OsNRAMP5 is a major transporter responsible for Mn and cadmium …

Metals like manganese (Mn) and iron (Fe) are essential for metabolism, while cadmium (Cd)
is toxic for virtually all living organisms. Understanding the transport of these metals is …

Rice is a major dietary source of the toxic metal, cadmium (Cd). Previous studies reported
that the rice transporter, OsNRAMP1,(Natural resistance‐associated macrophage protein 1) …

The heavy metal cadmium (Cd) is toxic to humans, and its accumulation in rice grains is a
major agricultural problem. Rice has seven putative metal transporter NRAMP genes, but …

Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace element for plants. Recently, the genes responsible
for uptake of Mn in plants were identified in Arabidopsis and rice. However, the mechanism …

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal toxic to humans and the accumulation of Cd in the rice grain
is a major agricultural problem, particularly in Asia. The role of the iron transporter …

Vacuolar storage of iron (Fe) is important for Fe homeostasis in plants. When sufficient,
excess Fe could be stored in vacuoles for remobilization in the case of Fe deficiency …

Paddy rice (Oryza sativa) is able to accumulate high concentrations of Mn without showing
toxicity; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying Mn uptake are unknown. Here, we …

Abstract Background and aims Iron (Fe) deficiency in plants is a common problem affecting
agricultural production. Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal that can be taken up and transported …
