Heavy metals are naturally occurring in the earth's crust but anthropogenic and industrial
activities have led to drastic environmental pollutions in distinct areas. Plants are able to …

Copper (Cu) is an essential micronutrient for all eukaryotes because it participates as a
redox active cofactor in multiple biological processes, including mitochondrial respiration …

Although iron (Fe) is one of the most abundant elements in the earth's crust, its low solubility
in soils restricts Fe uptake by plants. Most plant species acquire Fe by acidifying the …

In plants, the controlled absorption of soil nutrients by root epidermal cells is critical for
growth and development. IRON-REGULATED TRANSPORTER 1 (IRT1) is the main root …

Selected soil‐borne rhizobacteria can trigger an induced systemic resistance (ISR) that is
effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens. In A rabidopsis thaliana, the root‐specific …

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 …

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 …

Iron deficiency is a nutritional problem in plants and reduces crop productivity, quality and
yield. With the goal of improving the iron (Fe) storage properties of plants, we have …

Siderophores are specific ferric iron chelators synthesized by virtually all microorganisms in
response to iron deficiency. We have previously shown that they promote infection by the …

Dicotyledonous plants growing under limited iron availability initiate a response resulting in
the solubilization, reduction, and uptake of soil iron. The protein factors responsible for these …
