Manganese (Mn) is an important micronutrient for plant growth and development and
sustains metabolic roles within different plant cell compartments. The metal is an essential …

Arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury are toxic elements that are almost ubiquitously present
at low levels in the environment because of anthropogenic influences. Dietary intake of plant …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for almost all living organisms because of it plays critical
role in metabolic processes such as DNA synthesis, respiration, and photosynthesis …

This new edition provides current information on the nutritional requirements of world crops.
It presents research on the acquisition, accumulation, transport, and functions of chemical …

Over the past 200 years emissions of toxic heavy metals have risen tremendously and
significantly exceed those from natural sources for practically all metals. Uptake and …

Copper (Cu) is an essential mineral nutrient for the proper growth and development of
plants; it is involved in myriad morphological, physiological, and biochemical processes …

Iron is essential for the survival and proliferation of all plants. Higher plants have developed
two distinct strategies to acquire iron, which is only slightly soluble, from the rhizosphere: the …

Plants are the principal source of iron in most diets, yet iron availability often limits plant
growth. In response to iron deficiency, Arabidopsis roots induce the expression of the …

The effect of growing pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants with CdCl2 (0–50 μM) on different plant
physiological parameters and antioxidative enzymes of leaves was studied in order to know …

Transition metals such as copper are essential for many physiological processes yet can be
toxic at elevated levels. Other metals (eg lead) are nonessential and potentially highly toxic …
