Iron is an essential nutrient for plants and crucial for a variety of cellular functions. In most
soils, iron is present in large quantities, but mainly in forms that are not available to plants …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for most living organisms. Paradoxically, although iron is
abundant in many soils, iron availability is very often limiting for plant growth. In addition …

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 (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that affects the growth and development of plants
because it participates as a cofactor in numerous physiological and biochemical reactions …

Cellular and whole organism iron homeostasis must be balanced to supply enough iron for
metabolism and to avoid excessive, toxic levels. To perform iron uptake from the …

Iron is essential for plant cell function and more specifically for photosynthesis. Plants have
evolved highly efficient systems to take up iron from the soil. However, activating iron uptake …

Iron uptake in plants is highly regulated in order to supply amounts sufficient for optimal
growth while preventing excess accumulation. In response to iron deficiency, plants induce …

Iron is a central component of electron chains and a co-factor of many vital enzymes. Only a
few bacteria are able to substitute iron with other metals, making it an essential element for …

Iron is an essential micronutrient with numerous cellular functions, and its deficiency
represents one of the most serious problems in human nutrition worldwide. Plants have two …

Iron is essential for the survival and proliferation of all plants. Higher plants have developed
two distinct strategies to acquire iron, which is only slightly soluble, from the rhizosphere: the …
