Iron is an essential nutrient for plants, yet it often limits plant growth. On the contrary,
overaccumulation of iron within plant cells leads to oxidative stress. As a consequence, iron …

Iron is an essential element for life on Earth and its shortage, or excess, in the living
organism may lead to severe health disorders. Plants serve as the primary source of dietary …

Iron (Fe) is essential for plant growth and development. However, alkaline soils, which
occupy approximately 30% of the world's arable lands, are considered Fe-limiting for plant …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that affects the growth and development of plants
because it participates as a cofactor in numerous physiological and biochemical reactions …

Under iron-deficient conditions, plants induce the expression of a set of genes involved in
iron uptake and translocation. This response to iron deficiency is regulated by transcriptional …

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 …

Highlights•Plants are the main source of dietary iron, yet iron uptake by plants is limited.•Iron
acquisition and translocation are subject to fine-tuned homeostatic control.•New insight on …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for most living organisms. Paradoxically, although iron is
abundant in many soils, iron availability is very often limiting for plant growth. In addition …

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 …

Understanding the Fe deficiency response in plants is necessary for improving both plant
health and the human diet, which relies on Fe from plant sources. In this review we focus on …
