Deciphering the Boron Toxicity Tolerance Mechanisms of Triticum dicoccoides via RNA-Sequencing [PDF]
LifeBoron (B) toxicity is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting wheat productivity in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. Thus, it is important to understand the molecular basis of tolerance in boron-tolerant wheat genetic resources for effective ...

Boron transport in plants: co-ordinated regulation of transporters [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2010 The essentiality of boron (B) for plant growth was established > 85 years ago. In the last decade, it has been revealed that one of the physiological roles of B is cross-linking the pectic polysaccharide rhamnogalacturonan II in primary cell walls. Borate cross-linking of pectic networks serves both for physical strength of cell walls and for cell ...

What Can Boron Deficiency Symptoms Tell Us about Its Function and Regulation?
Plants, 2023 On the eve of the 100th anniversary of Dr. Warington’s discovery of boron (B) as a nutrient essential for higher plants, “boronists” have struggled to demonstrate a role beyond its structural function in cell walls dimerizing pectin molecules of ...

Rapid transporter regulation prevents substrate flow traffic jams in boron transport
eLife, 2017 Nutrient uptake by roots often involves substrate-dependent regulated nutrient transporters. For robust uptake, the system requires a regulatory circuit within cells and a collective, coordinated behaviour across the tissue.

Transport and regulatory mechanisms of boron in plants [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceBoron (B) is a vital micronutrient necessary for the proper development of plants. However, B exhibits a very narrow concentration range between deficiency and toxicity in plants, making precise regulatory control over its uptake, translocation, and ...
