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 …

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) plantlets were exposed to Cd or Hg to study the kinetics of diverse
stress indexes. In the so-called beaker-size hydroponic system, plantlets were grown in 30 …

… . 2008), and this was also supported by ESI-TOFMS direct determination of Fe–NA
complexes in standard solutions containing Fe, NA and Cit at typical xylem pH values (Rellán-Álvarez …

Low phosphate (Pi) availability constrains plant development and seed production in both
natural and agricultural ecosystems. When Pi is scarce, modifications of root system …

Maize is a globally valuable commodity and one of the most extensively studied genetic
model organisms. However, we know surprisingly little about the extent and potential utility of …

The metal chelator nicotianamine promotes the bioavailability of Fe and reduces cellular Fe
toxicity. For breeding Fe-efficient crops, we need to explore the fundamental impact of …

A hydroponic experiment was carried out to characterize the oxidative stress responses of
maize seedlings (Zea mays L. cv. Dekalb DK604) to cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg). Plants …

The plant root system traverses one of the most complex environments on earth. Understanding
how roots support plant life on land requires knowing how soil properties affect the …

• Here, the kinetics of oxidative stress responses of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) seedlings to
cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg) (0, 3, 10 and 30 µm) exposure, expanding from a few minutes …
