3 Ιαν 2022 · Plants are the ultimate source of zinc in the human diet, and human Zn deficiency accounts for over 400 000 deaths annually. Here, we review the current understanding of zinc homeostasis in plants from the molecular and physiological perspectives.
Zinc deficiency occurs when plant growth is limited because the plant cannot take up sufficient quantities of this essential micronutrient from its growing medium. Zinc is one of the most important micronutrients.
6 Οκτ 2022 · Zinc deficiency and toxicity symptoms in plants. Zn deficiency is becoming a severe agricultural concern due to its poor availability in arable soils globally, resulting in decreased crop output and nutritional quality (Zeng et al., 2021).
Zn deficiency in plants results in severe yield loss, yellowing of leaves, stunted growth, and death of plant in severe conditions. Although Zn deficiency can be treated by different methods such as conventional fortification, biofortification, and nanotechnological intervention.
Plants rely on soils for their Zn uptake, and their deficiency in the soil gives rise to abiotic stress in plants (Fig. 3.2) (Moreira et al., 2018). Zn deficiency impairs stem elongation and decreases the synthesis of protein and starch in tomato plants ( Akther et al., 2020 ).
16 Φεβ 2021 · Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals owing to its structural and catalytic roles in many proteins 1. Zn deficiency affects around 2 billion people, mainly those...
23 Οκτ 2021 · Iron (Fe) and Zinc (Zn) are vital micronutrients for plants and their deficiency causes severe impairments in physiological and biochemical responses of plants. In response to stress emerging due to their deficiency, plants evolve different strategies to regulate the homeostasis network to ensure optimum Fe and Zn uptake.
