Nutrients are essential for optimal growth and development of plants. Nutrient availability
and composition in the soil varies largely from region to region. The deficiency of essential …

The importance of rhizomicrobiome in plant development, nutrition acquisition and stress
tolerance is unquestionable. Relevant plant genes corresponding to the above functions …

Competition for iron is an important factor for microbial niche establishment in the
rhizosphere. Pathogenic and beneficial symbiotic bacteria use various secretion systems to …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Fe availability
affects crops' productivity and the quality of their derived products and thus human nutrition …

In concert with oxygen, soil alkalinity strongly restricts the availability of iron, an essential
nutrient with a multitude of functions in living organisms. In addition to its role in …

Abstract Copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) are essential micronutrients that are toxic when
accumulating in excess in cells. Thus, their uptake by roots is tightly regulated. While plants …

Organ growth is controlled by both intrinsic genetic factors and external environmental
signals. However, the molecular mechanisms that coordinate plant organ growth and …

Iron (Fe) is an essential trace element for plants. When suffering from Fe deficiency, plants
modulate the expression of Fe deficiency-responsive genes to promote Fe uptake. POPEYE …

Although iron (Fe) deficiency is an adverse condition to growth and development of plants, it
increases the resistance to pathogens. How Fe deficiency induces the resistance to …

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation carried out by the interaction between legumes and rhizobia is
the main source of nitrogen in natural ecosystems and in sustainable agriculture. For the …
