This project explores how plants manage metal elements, focusing on zinc homeostasis to combat nutritional deficiencies and soil contamination. By studying specific proteins and genetic pathways, it aims to enhance bio-fortification and phytoremediation strategies, improving food safety and environmental health.
This project aims to advance our fundamental molecular understanding of metal homeostasis in plants, enabling the rational design of bio-fortification and phytoremediation technologies.
Nutritional zinc deficiency affects more than a third of the World’s population.
Also, large areas of soils in industrialized nations are contaminated with high levels of chemically similar harmful metals such as lead and cadmium.
Since plants are a major route for the entry of both essential and toxic non-essent…
