Fe is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development; plants have developed
sophisticated strategies to acquire ferric Fe from the soil. Nongraminaceous plants acquire …

In plants, iron uptake from the soil is tightly regulated to ensure optimal growth and
development. Iron absorption in Arabidopsis root epidermal cells requires the IRT1 …

Plants take up iron from the soil using the IRON-REGULATED TRANSPORTER 1 (IRT1)
high-affinity iron transporter at the root surface. Sophisticated regulatory mechanisms allow …

Iron is an essential micronutrient but is toxic if accumulated at high levels. Thus, iron uptake
and distribution in plants are controlled by precise regulatory mechanisms. IRON …

Iron is an essential nutrient for all organisms but toxic when present in excess.
Consequently, plants carefully regulate their iron uptake, dependent on the FRO2 ferric …

Plant roots forage the soil for iron, the concentration of which can be dramatically lower than
those needed for growth. Soil iron uptake uses the broad metal spectrum IRT1 transporter …

SUMMARY IRON‐REGULATED TRANSPORTER1 (IRT1) is the root high‐affinity ferrous
iron (Fe) uptake system and indispensable for the completion of the life cycle of Arabidopsis …

Iron, an essential nutrient, is not readily available to plants because of its low solubility. In
addition, iron is toxic in excess, catalyzing the formation of hydroxyl radicals that can …

The IRON-REGULATED TRANSPORTER1 (IRT1) is the principal importer of soil iron in
Arabidopsis thaliana. It has a complex intracellular trafficking behavior, including continuous …

Iron is an essential nutrient for plants, but excess iron is toxic due to its catalytic role in the
formation of hydroxyl radicals. Thus, iron uptake is highly regulated and induced only under …
