Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that affects the growth and development of plants
because it participates as a cofactor in numerous physiological and biochemical reactions …

Iron (Fe) is one of the essential micronutrients required by both plants and animals. In
humans, Fe deficiency causes anemia, the most prevalent nutritional disorder. Most people …

Recent studies have demonstrated that drought leads to dramatic, highly conserved shifts in
the root microbiome. At present, the molecular mechanisms underlying these responses …

The functions of iron, manganese, copper, zinc, nickel, molybdenum, boron, and chlorine in
plants are discussed. Iron (Fe) plays a crucial role in redox systems in cells and various …

Although abundant in soils, iron (Fe) is poorly bioavailable for plants. Improving Fe uptake in
crops, enabling them to grow in Fe-depleted soils, has become a major focal interest. The …

IRON MAN (IMA) peptides, a family of small peptides, control iron (Fe) transport in plants, but
their roles in Fe signaling remain unclear. BRUTUS (BTS) is a potential Fe sensor that …

The main functions of plant roots are water and nutrient uptake, soil anchorage, and
interaction with soil-living biota. Root hairs, single cell tubular extensions of root epidermal …

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 …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals owing to its structural and
catalytic roles in many proteins. Zn deficiency affects around 2 billion people, mainly those …

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 …
