Photosynthetic organisms convert light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates.
To perform this process, an adequate supply of essential mineral elements, such as iron, is …

Iron deficiency hampers photosynthesis and is associated with chlorosis. We recently
showed that iron deficiency-induced chlorosis depends on phosphorus availability. How …

Significance: Photosynthesis, the process that drives life on earth, relies on transition metal
(eg, Fe and Cu) containing proteins that participate in electron transfer in the chloroplast …

Due to its ease to donate or accept electrons, iron (Fe) plays a crucial role in respiration and
metabolism, including tetrapyrrole synthesis, in virtually all organisms. In plants, Fe is a …

Iron (Fe) is an essential element for plants, utilized in nearly every cellular process. Because
the adjustment of uptake under Fe limitation cannot satisfy all demands, plants need to …

In plants, iron (Fe) transport and homeostasis are highly regulated processes. Fe deficiency
or excess dramatically limits plant and algal productivity. Interestingly, complex and …

Iron is a central component of electron chains and a co-factor of many vital enzymes. Only a
few bacteria are able to substitute iron with other metals, making it an essential element for …

Iron (Fe) is essential for life because of its role in protein cofactors. Photosynthesis, in
particular photosynthetic electron transport, has a very high demand for Fe cofactors. Fe is …

Background Iron is an essential micronutrient for all living things, required in plants for
photosynthesis, respiration and metabolism. A lack of bioavailable iron in soil leads to iron …

Iron (Fe) is one of the essential micronutrients required by both plants and animals. In
humans, Fe deficiency causes anemia, the most prevalent nutritional disorder. Most people …
