Zinc (Zn) deficiency is very widespread both from the plant and human nutrition perspective.
One of the approaches to improve Zn in crop plants is by over-expression of Zn transporters …

The ZIP protein (ZRT, the IRT-like protein) is an important metal transporter that transports
Zn, Fe, and other divalent metal ions in plants. In this study, we identified 20 ZIP genes in …

Zinc (Zn) is an important essential micronutrient for plants and humans; however, the exact
transporter responsible for root zinc uptake from soil has not been identified. Here, we found …

The zinc/iron-regulated transporter-like protein (ZIP) gene family first identified in plants is
highly distributed in the plant kingdom. This family has previously been reported to transport …

Zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) deficiency are widespread among citrus plants, but the molecular
mechanisms regarding uptake and transport of these two essential metal ions in citrus are …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for most organisms including humans, and Zn
deficiency is widespread in human populations, particularly in underdeveloped regions …

Zinc (Zn) deficiency is widespread in plants and molecular mechanism of uptake and
transport within organelles is unclear. A novel Zn transporter gene was identified and …

The ZIP (Zn-regulated, iron-regulated transporter-like protein) transporter plays an important
role in regulating the uptake, transport, and accumulation of microelements in plants …

Zinc is an essential micronutrient for several physiological and biochemical processes. To
investigate its transport in rice, we characterized OsZIP8, a rice ZIP (Zrt, Irt-like Protein) gene …

ZIP is one of the most important gene families associated with zinc transportation in plants.
Although ZIP genes have been studied in a variety of plant species, yet remain unexplored …
