Fe is the fourth abundant element in the earth crust. Fe toxicity is not often discussed in plant
science though it causes severe morphological and physiological disorders, including …

Oceanic phytoplankton species have highly efficient mechanisms of iron acquisition, as they
can take up iron from environments in which it is present at subnanomolar concentrations. In …

Diatoms are marine organisms that represent one of the most important sources of biomass
in the ocean, accounting for about 40% of marine primary production, and in the biosphere …

Continental margins are disproportionally important for global primary production, fisheries
and CO2 uptake. However, across the Northeast Atlantic shelves, there has been an …

Phytoplankton growth is limited in vast oceanic regions by the low bioavailability of iron. Iron
fertilization often results in diatom blooms, yet the physiological underpinnings for how …

Microalgae-based bioremediation presents an alternative to traditional biological
wastewater treatment. However, its efficiency is still challenging due to low microalgal …

Iron is a vital element for microalgae growth. An adequate amount of iron is required to
maintain the microalgal photosynthetic and other metabolic reactions. The limited …

Metals in traces are vital for microalgae but their occurrence at high concentrations in
habitats is a serious ecological concern. We investigated the potential of two acid-tolerant …

Magnetic iron-based nanoparticles have been found to stimulate algae growth and harvest,
repair disintegrated particles and improve stability, and facilitate operation in extreme …

Numerous cellular functions including respiration require iron. Plants and phytoplankton
must also maintain the iron-rich photosynthetic electron transport chain, which most likely …
