Time to pump iron: iron-deficiency-signaling mechanisms of higher plants

EL Walker, EL Connolly - Current opinion in plant biology, 2008 - Elsevier
Iron is an essential nutrient for plants, yet it often limits plant growth. On the contrary,
overaccumulation of iron within plant cells leads to oxidative stress. As a consequence, iron …
