Many trace metals are essential micronutrients, but also potent toxins. Due to natural and
anthropogenic causes, vastly different trace metal concentrations occur in various habitats …

Iron is essential for the survival and proliferation of all plants. Higher plants have developed
two distinct strategies to acquire iron, which is only slightly soluble, from the rhizosphere: the …

Iron is an essential element for plant growth and development. While abundant in soil, the
available Fe in soil is limited. In this regard, plants have evolved a series of mechanisms for …

Iron (Fe) is essential for life because of its role in protein cofactors. Photosynthesis, in
particular photosynthetic electron transport, has a very high demand for Fe cofactors. Fe is …

Fe is essential for plant growth. At the same time, Fe is highly reactive and toxic via the
Fenton reaction. Consequently, plants tightly control Fe homeostasis and react to Fe …

Copper (Cu) is a cofactor in proteins that are involved in electron transfer reactions and is an
essential micronutrient for plants. Copper delivery is accomplished by the concerted action …

Plants have recently moved into the spotlight owing to the growing realization that the world
needs solutions to energy and food production that are sustainable and environmentally …

Iron (Fe) deficiency-induced chlorosis is a major nutritional disorder in crops growing in
calcareous soils. Iron deficiency in fruit tree crops causes chlorosis, decreases in vegetative …

It is increasingly realized that homoploid hybrid speciation (HHS), which involves no change
in chromosome number, is an important mechanism of speciation. HHS will likely increase in …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plants, and its storage in the apoplast represents
an important Fe pool. Plants have developed various strategies to reutilize this apoplastic Fe …
