The analysis of transport systems involved in the uptake of trace metals in plants is
complicated by technical difficulties associated with measurement of uptake and by the likely …

The introduction of novel traits into high biomass plants is a promising strategy to develop an
efficient system for phytoremediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals. Evidences …

Trace amounts of certain transition metals often referred to as “heavy metals” act as
cofactors for proteins involved in vital cellular processes. The very same metals as well as …

S. cerevisiae gezeigt werden (Clemens et al., 1998). Der Eisentransporter IRT1 aus
Arabidopsis thaliana weist ebenfalls eine geringe Substratspezifität auf. In S. cerevisiae …

This thesis describes my research into the mechanisms that regulate the homeostasis of
copper and zinc. Both of these minerals are essential for life. Mutations in proteins that …

Metal homeostasis in plants is regulated by diverse mechanisms that act together to
maintain optimal metal ion concentrations inside the cell. P1B-ATPases are heavy metal …

Bauxite residue sand (BRS), even though a poor substrate for plant growth because of very
high pH, salinity and sodicity, is required to be revegetated. Manganese deficiency is …
