The essentiality of 14 mineral elements so far have been reported in plant nutrition. Eight of
these elements were known as micronutrients due to their lower concentrations in plants …

Finger millet is a nutri-rich cereal crop of poor people living in the developing countries of
Asia and Africa. Finger millet grains contain high amounts of potassium, phosphorus …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants and humans. Nearly 50% of the agriculture
soils of world are Zn-deficient. The low availability of Zn reduces the yield and quality of the …

In this study, the interaction between zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) was investigated in rice
roots to evaluate how Zn can protect the plants from Cd stress. Rice seedlings were treated …

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) is an important industrial crop plant. However, it efficiently
accumulates metals, primarily cadmium (Cd) and also zinc (Zn), in its leaves. Therefore, it …

The members of ZRT, IRT-like protein (ZIP) family are involved in the uptake and
transportation of several metal ions. Here, we report a comprehensive identification of ZIP …

Pearl millet is an important crop for alleviating micronutrient malnutrition through genomics-
assisted breeding for grain Fe (GFeC) and Zn (GZnC) content. In this study, we identified …

The snake venoms are complex mixtures containing many bioactive peptides and proteins;
some of them are aimed to protect the snake glands, where the venom is stored, until the …

Soils with mineral deficiencies lead to nutritional imbalance in crops worldwide. Zinc (Zn) is
