Selenium in plants: Boon or bane?
M Hasanuzzaman, MHMB Bhuyan, A Raza… - Environmental and …, 2020 - Elsevier
Selenium (Se) is yet to be confirmed as essential for plants, but it has proven to be an
essential trace element for humans and other animals. However, it is well documented that …

Trace metal metabolism in plants
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 …

Biosynthesis of redox-active metabolites in response to iron deficiency in plants
Iron is an essential but poorly bioavailable nutrient because of its low solubility, especially in
alkaline soils. Here, we describe the discovery of a previously undescribed redox-active …

Regulation of iron homeostasis and use in chloroplasts
GE Kroh, M Pilon - International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 - mdpi.com
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 …

[HTML][HTML] The role of mitochondria in cellular iron–sulfur protein biogenesis and iron metabolism
Mitochondria play a key role in iron metabolism in that they synthesize heme, assemble iron–
sulfur (Fe/S) proteins, and participate in cellular iron regulation. Here, we review the latter …

Interdependent iron and phosphorus availability controls photosynthesis through retrograde signaling
Iron deficiency hampers photosynthesis and is associated with chlorosis. We recently
showed that iron deficiency-induced chlorosis depends on phosphorus availability. How …
