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 …

Copper (Cu) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development, and its
deficiency in plants has been reported in many crop regions. About 50% of agricultural soils …

Copper is an essential cofactor for aerobic respiration, since it is required as a redox
cofactor in Cytochrome c Oxidase (COX). This ancient and highly conserved enzymatic …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza can increase plant tolerance to heavy metals. The effects of
arbuscular mycorrhiza on plant metal tolerance vary depending on the fungal and plant …

Copper (Cu) is essential for plant growth and development. IRON MAN (IMA) is a family of
small peptides that can bind both iron (Fe) and Cu ions. It was reported that IMAs mediate Fe …

As an essential nutrient, copper (Cu) scarcity causes a decrease in agricultural production.
Cu deficiency responses include the induction of several microRNAs, known as Cu-miRNAs …

Plant micro RNAs (miRNAs) control growth, development and stress tolerance but are
comparatively unexplored in banana, whose cultivation is threatened by abiotic stress and …

Abstract Background The Arabidopsis SQUAMOSA PROMOTER-BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE
(SPL) transcription factor SPL7 reprograms cellular gene expression to adapt plant growth …

Cadmium toxicity interferes with essential metal homeostasis, which is a problem for both
plant nutrition and the consumption of healthy food by humans. Copper uptake is performed …

Copper homeostasis under deficiency is regulated by the SQUAMOSA PROMOTER
BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE7 (SPL7) transcription factor. The daily oscillating expression of two …
