Zinc plays many essential roles in life. As a strong Lewis acid that lacks redox activity under
environmental and cellular conditions, the Zn 2+ cation is central in determining protein …

The provision of sustainable, sufficient, and nutritious food to the growing population is a
major challenge for agriculture and the plant research community. In this respect, the …

Introduction Multiple studies have shown strong relationships between different nutrients in
plants, and the important role of N in Zn acquisition and translocation has been recognized …

Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) are essential micronutrients needed by virtually all living organisms,
including plants and humans, for proper growth and development. Due to its capacity to …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for both plants and animals, while its deficiency in
crops and humans is a global problem that affects both crop productivity and human health …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential element involved in human metabolism, which can be supplied by
an appropriate diet. Enhancing Zn enrichment in rice grains through agronomic …

Low temperature during the vegetative stage depresses rice tillering. Zinc (Zn) can promote
rice tiller growth and improve plant resistance to abiotic stress. Consequently, Zn application …

Plants require zinc (Zn) as an essential cofactor for diverse molecular, cellular and
physiological functions. Zn is crucial for crop yield, but is one of the most limiting …

Both zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) are essential micro-nutrients for plant growth and development,
yet their levels in plants are tightly regulated to prevent either deficiency or phytotoxicity. In …

Zinc (Zn) can improve resistance of rice plants to abiotic stress and promote the recovery of
rice tillers by influencing auxin (IAA) synthesis, Zn absorption is closely related to nitrogen …
