Leaf Tissue‐Specific Phosphorus Allocation Is Linked to Leaf Lifespan in Chickpea Accessions

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants strategically allocate phosphorus (P) among leaf tissues to support physiological functions. However, there is limited understanding of contrasting leaf cellular P‐allocation patterns and their physiological consequences. We quantified leaf P fractions, photosynthetic P‐use efficiency (PPUE), and P‐remobilisation efficiency (PRE) in ...

Drought affects Fe deficiency‐induced responses in a purple durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum) genotype

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Combined Fe deficiency and drought in durum wheat trigger interactive responses: drought suppressed root Fe uptake regardless of Fe availability, and both stresses altered phytosiderophore release, ABA level and Fe transporter gene expression, revealing a trade‐off between water and Fe. Abstract Iron (Fe) is essential for plants and humans, with over 2

Exogenous IAA application alleviated altered physiological and biochemical processes through promoting H‐ATPase and Fe chelate reductase activities in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) subjected to iron deficiency

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Exogenous IAA supply enhances the strategy I response in common bean under iron deficiency. Abstract Iron deficiency is a common nutritional disorder observed in calcareous soils, where its resolution by classical methods has shown its failure. However, the exploitation of certain potentialities possessed by crops (rhizosphere acidification, H‐ATPase ...

Kinetochore size correlates with chromosome size in Star of Bethlehem (Ornithogalum kochii Parl., Asparagaceae)

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Cytogenetic quantification of KNL1‐labelled kinetochores in Ornithogalum kochii reveals a significant positive scaling relationship between chromosome size and kinetochore size, demonstrating that chromosome–kinetochore scaling operates even across moderate intra‐karyotype size variation.

Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.
