Malnutrition results in enormous socio-economic costs to the individual, their community,
and the nation's economy. The evidence suggests an overall negative impact of climate …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals, and plants are a major source of
iron for humans. Therefore, understanding the regulation of iron homeostasis in plants is …

Background Iron toxicity is a root related abiotic stress, occurring frequently in flooded soils.
It can affect the yield of rice in lowland production systems. This toxicity is associated with …

Iron deficiency is a serious agricultural problem, particularly in alkaline soils. Secretion of
coumarins by Arabidopsis thaliana roots is induced under iron deficiency. An essential …

More than 60% of the world population suffers from iron deficiency, and over 30% of the
global population has zinc deficiency. Micronutrient deficiency leads to compromised health …

Selenium is an essential trace element for humans and obtained from diary diets. The
consumption of selenium-rich agricultural food is an efficient way to obtain selenium, but the …

To avoid zinc (Zn) toxicity, plants have developed a Zn homeostasis mechanism to cope with
Zn excess in the surrounding soil. In this report, we uncovered the difference of a cross …

In recent years, the increasing knowledge on the molecular mechanisms underlying mineral
uptake, transport, homeostasis and deposition within plants, has paved the way for a more …

Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is a yield limiting problem in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr)
production regions with calcareous soils. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was …

Abstract Background Iron (Fe) deficiency in crops is a worldwide agricultural problem. Plants
have evolved several strategies to enhance Fe acquisition, but increasing evidence has …
