Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), zinc (Zn), and iron (Fe) are some of the vital
nutrients required for optimum growth, development, and productivity of plants. The …

Phosphorus (P), an essential macronutrient, plays a pivotal role in the growth and
development of plants. However, the limited availability of phosphorus in soil presents …

Plants live in biogeochemically diverse soils with diverse microbiota. Plant organs associate
intimately with a subset of these microbes, and the structure of the microbial community can …

Plant roots show a particularly high variation in their morphological response to different
nutrient deficiencies. Although such changes often determine the nutrient efficiency or stress …

Plants constantly sense the changes in their environment; when mineral elements are
scarce, they often allocate a greater proportion of their biomass to the root system. This …

Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and reproduction. Plants
preferentially absorb P as orthophosphate (Pi), an ion that displays low solubility and that is …

Inorganic phosphate (Pi)-signaling pathways in plants are still largely unknown. The
Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) pho2 mutant overaccumulates Pi in leaves in Pi-replete …

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development. Root system
architecture (RSA) affects a plant's ability to obtain phosphate, the major form of phosphorus …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals. Unfortunately, deficiency of Zn
in humans has increased on a global scale. The main reason of this micronutrient deficiency …

Plants acquire phosphorus in the form of phosphate (Pi), the concentration of which is often
limited for plant uptake. Plants have developed diverse responses to conserve and …
