Plants take up metals, including the essential micronutrients [iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc
(Zn), and manganese (Mn)] and the toxic heavy metal cadmium (Cd), from soil and …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development due to its role in
crucial processes such as photosynthesis and modulation of the redox state as an electron …

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most dangerous environmental pollutants among heavy metals,
and threatens food safety and human health by accumulating in plant sink tissues. Here, we …

Soil contamination with trace metals and metalloids can cause toxicity to plants and threaten
food safety and human health. Plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to cope with …

The plasma membrane (PM) houses a wide variety of proteins, facilitating interactions
between the cell and its surroundings. Perception of external stimuli leads to selective …

One of life's decisive innovations was to harness the catalytic power of metals for cellular
chemistry. With life's expansion, global atmospheric and biogeochemical cycles underwent …

Wheat grown in cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soils easily accumulates more Cd in edible
parts than the Chinese safety limit (0.1 mg/kg). FeCl 3 and Fe 2 (SO 4) 3 have been used to …

Proteome composition is dynamic and influenced by many internal and external cues,
including developmental signals, light availability, or environmental stresses. Protein …

Zinc is an essential micronutrient for all living organisms. When challenged by zinc‐limiting
conditions, Arabidopsis thaliana plants use a strategy centered on two transcription factors …

Iron plays an essential role in plant metabolism and the regulation of its transport is essential
for the plant. In Arabidopsis thaliana, iron uptake in root epidermal cells is mediated by the …
