In contrast with many other essential metals, the mechanisms of Mn acquisition in higher
eukaryotes are seldom studied and poorly understood. We show here that Arabidopsis …

Summary The NATURAL RESISTANCE‐ASSOCIATED MACROPHAGE PROTEIN 1
(NRAMP1) transporter guarantees plant survival of manganese (Mn) deficiency by …

Metal cation homeostasis is essential for plant nutrition and resistance to toxic heavy metals.
Many plant metal transporters remain to be identified at the molecular level. In the present …

Metal homeostasis is critical for the survival of living organisms, and metal transporters play
central roles in maintaining metal homeostasis in the living cells. We have investigated the …

Manganese (Mn) is an essential element, acting as cofactor in numerous enzymes. In
particular, a Mn cluster is indispensable for the function of the oxygen-evolving complex of …

Manganese (Mn), an essential trace element, is important for plant health. In plants, Mn
serves as a cofactor in essential processes such as photosynthesis, lipid biosynthesis and …

Metal transporters regulated by iron can transport a variety of divalent metals, suggesting
that iron regulation is important for specificity of iron transport. In plants, the iron-regulated …

Manganese is an essential metal for plant growth. A number of transporters involved in the
uptake of manganese from soils, and its translocation to the shoot, have been identified in …

NRAMP (natural resistance-associated macrophage protein) homologues are evolutionarily
conserved bivalent metal transporters. In Arabidopsis, AtNRAMP3 and AtNRAMP4 play a …

Abstract Background and Aims Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional
disorders in plants, especially in fruit trees grown in calcareous soil. Malus baccata is widely …
