Industrial revolution brought prodigious encroachment on agricultural productivity but at
apparent environmental costs. One of the major unfortunate consequences of …

Aluminium toxicity is one of the major factors that limit plant growth and development in
many acid soils. Root cells plasma membrane, particularly of the root apex, seems to be a …

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 …

Aluminum (Al) toxicity in acid soils is a worldwide agricultural problem that severely limits
crop productivity through inhibition of root growth. Previously, Arabidopsis mutants with …

Abstract Toxic aluminum ions (Al3+) found in acidic soils are absorbed by plants and interact
with multiple sites during plant development, affecting especially the root growth. The …

To examine the biological role of Al-stress-induced genes, nine genes derived from
Arabidopsis, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and yeast …

Abstract Development of acid soils that limit crop production is an increasing problem
worldwide. Many factors contribute to phytotoxicity of these soils, however, in acid soils with …

Aluminum toxicity is a major soil constraint to food and biomass production throughout the
world. Considerable advances in the understanding of the mechanism of resistance …

Abstract Changes in gene expression induced by toxic levels of Al were characterized to
investigate the nature of Al stress. A cDNA library was constructed from Arabidopsis thaliana …

Here, we report the aluminum (Al)-induced organ-specific expression of a WAK1 (cell wall-
associated receptor kinase 1) gene and cell type-specific localization of WAK proteins in …
