Iron plays a crucial role in biochemistry and is an essential micronutrient for plants and
humans alike. Although plentiful in the Earth's crust it is not usually found in a form readily …

Iron is an essential nutrient for most life on Earth because it functions as a crucial redox
catalyst in many cellular processes. However, when present in excess iron can lead to the …

Soil communities are diverse taxonomically and functionally. This ecosystem experiences
highly complex networks of interactions, but may also present functionally independent …

In plants, the excess of several heavy metals mimics iron (Fe) deficiency-induced chlorosis,
indicating a disturbance in Fe homeostasis. To examine the level at which heavy metals …

Iron is one of the most abundant elements in soils, but its low phytoavailability at high pH
restricts plant communities on alkaline soils to taxa that have evolved efficient strategies to …

Root colonization by Trichoderma fungi can trigger induced systemic resistance (ISR). In
Arabidopsis, Trichoderma‐ISR relies on the transcription factor MYB72, which plays a dual …

Iron (Fe) deficiency is a limiting factor for the normal growth and development of plants, and
many species have evolved sophisticated systems for adaptation to Fe-deficient …

Iron (Fe) is required for plant health, but it can also be toxic when present in excess.
Therefore, Fe levels must be tightly controlled. The Arabidopsis thaliana E3 ligase BRUTUS …

Metal accumulation in seeds is a prerequisite for germination and establishment of plants
but also for micronutrient delivery to humans. To investigate metal transport processes and …

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 …
