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 …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants, playing catalytic or structural roles in
enzymes, transcription factors, ribosomes, and membranes. In humans, Zn deficiency is the …

A better understanding of the role of the Arabidopsis ZIP family of micronutrient transporters
is necessary in order to advance our understanding of plant Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu …

Developing tissues such as meristems and reproductive organs require high zinc, but the
molecular mechanisms of how zinc taken up by the roots is preferentially delivered to these …

The decade since the publication of the third edition of this volume has been an era of great
progress in biology in general and the plant sciences in particular. This is especially true …

Antioxidants are protective molecules that neutralize reactive oxygen species and prevent
oxidative damage to cellular components such as membranes, proteins and nucleic acids …

Berry organoleptic properties are highly influenced by ripening environmental conditions. In
this study, we used grapevine fruiting cuttings to follow berry ripening under different …

Zn is an essential trace element, involved in many different cellular processes. A relationship
between Zn, pancreatic function and diabetes was suggested almost 70 years ago. To …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient which affects plant growth and development in
deficiency and can be toxic when present in excess. In Arabidopsis thaliana, different …

Background Quantitative information on gene activity at single cell-type resolution is
essential for the understanding of how cells work and interact. Root hairs, or trichoblasts …
