Zinc (Zn) plays an important role in the physiology and biochemistry of plants due to its
established essentiality and toxicity for living beings at certain Zn concentration ie, deficient …

Zinc is an essential microelement involved in many aspects of plant growth and
development. Abnormal zinc amounts, mostly due to human activities, can be toxic to flora …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals. Because of its low availability
in arable soils worldwide, Zn deficiency is becoming a serious agricultural problem resulting …

Zinc toxicity and problems with regard to tolerance and ecological significance are briefly
discussed. Differential tolerance of plant genotypes exposed to zinc toxicity is a promising …

Increasing cadmium (Cd) pollution in agricultural soils has raised serious concerns
worldwide. Several exogenous substances can be used to mitigate the toxic effects of Cd in …

Zinc (Zn), which is regarded as a crucial micronutrient for plants, and is considered to be a
vital micronutrient for plants. Zn has a significant role in the biochemistry and metabolism of …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for all organisms, with key catalytic and structural
functions. Zn deficiency in plants, common in alkaline soils, results in growth arrest and …

Availability of Zn to plant is hampered by its immobile nature and adverse soil conditions.
Thus, Zn deficiency is observed even though high amount is available in soil. Root-shoot …
