Plants are the principal source of iron in most diets, yet iron availability often limits plant
growth. In response to iron deficiency, Arabidopsis roots induce the expression of the …

Plants, being sessile in nature, are constantly exposed to various environmental stresses,
such as solar UV radiations, soil salinity, drought and desiccation, rehydration, low and high …

Fe is essential for plant growth. At the same time, Fe is highly reactive and toxic via the
Fenton reaction. Consequently, plants tightly control Fe homeostasis and react to Fe …

The effect of growing pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants with CdCl2 (0–50 μM) on different plant
physiological parameters and antioxidative enzymes of leaves was studied in order to know …

Some plants can hyperaccumulate metal ions that are toxic to virtually all other organisms at
low dosages. This trait could be used to clean up metal-contaminated soils. Moreover, the …

The metalloid arsenic and the heavy metal cadmium have no demonstrated biological
function in plants. Both elements are highly toxic and of major concern with respect to their …

Uptake and translocation of cationic nutrients play essential roles in physiological processes
including plant growth, nutrition, signal transduction, and development. Approximately 5% of …

Монография посвящена анализу имеющихся в литературе данных и результатов
собственных исследований авторов, касающихся поглощения ионов тяжелых металлов …

Abstract The elements Zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) have similar chemical and physical
properties, but contrasting physiological effects in higher organisms. In plants, Zn/Cd …

During their life, plants have to cope with a variety of abiotic stresses. Cadmium is highly
toxic to plants, water soluble and therefore promptly adsorbed in tissues and its presence …
