Genetic Variation and Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis of the Maize Ionome in Response to Phosphorus Fertilisation. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Cell Environ
ABSTRACT Improving the nutritional quality of crops is crucial for human health, livestock, and agricultural productivity, especially on nutrient‐limited soils. To address this, we investigated the variation and the genetic basis of mineral content, including, among others, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc, in a diverse panel of maize (Zea mays L ...

An Algal Nutrient-Replete, Optimized Medium for Fast Growth and High Triacylglycerol Accumulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Direct
ABSTRACT Microalgae are promising sources to sustainably meet the global needs for energy and products. Algae grow under different trophic conditions, where nutritional status regulates biosynthetic pathways, energy production, and growth. The green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis has strong economic potential because it co‐produces biofuel precursors ...

Genome-Wide Association Studies Reveal the Genetic Architecture of Ionomic Variation in Grains of Tartary Buckwheat. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
In this study, variation and genetic basis of ionome among Tartary buckwheat population are investigated, illuminating their significance in the domestication and diversification of Tartary buckwheat. And three genes (FtACA13 for Na content, FtYPQ1 for Zn content, FtNHX2 for As content) are identified with the dominant haplotypes and functional ...

Role of LOTR1 in nutrient transport through organization of spatial distribution of root endodermal barriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The formation of Casparian strips and suberin lamellae at the endodermis limits the free diffusion of nutrients and harmful substances via the apoplastic space between the soil solution and the stele in roots [1–3].

Worldwide genetic diversity for mineral element concentrations in rice grain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
With the aim of identifying rice (Oryza spp.) germplasm having enhanced grain nutritional value, the mineral nutrient and trace element concentrations (or ionome) of whole (unmilled) grains from a set of 1763 rice accessions of diverse geographic and ...

Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Modulates Iron Distribution and Vacuolar Iron Transporter Expression in Tomato, Whereas Iron Limitation Reduces Mycorrhization

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants have evolved highly efficient strategies to maintain iron (Fe) homeostasis. In this study, we investigate the impact of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis on the Fe‐deficiency response and ionomic profile of tomato plants, as well as how Fe availability affects AM symbiosis.

Elemental profiling of rice FOX lines leads to characterization of a new Zn plasma membrane transporter, OsZIP7 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) are essential micronutrients required for proper development in both humans and plants. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains are the staple food for nearly half of the world’s population, but a poor source of metals such as Fe and Zn ...

Hypoxic and Fe‐Responses are Regulated by the ERFVII Factors and the PCO Branch of the N‐Degron Pathway According to Iron Availability

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In plants, iron homeostasis and oxygen metabolism are strictly related, indeed several Fe‐requiring enzymes catalyze reactions that also involve O2 as a reagent, product, entry or end point of the pathway. Oxygen sensing itself relies on the Fe‐dependent enzymes Plant cysteine oxidases.

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Tomato ionomic approach for food fortification and safety. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Food fortification is an issue of paramount of importance for people living both in developed and in developing countries. Among substances listed as "nutriceuticals", essential minerals have been recognised for their involvement in several healthy ...
