This project investigates the role of specific transport proteins in the uptake and storage of iron in plants, focusing on coumarins that enhance iron absorption. By understanding these mechanisms, the project aims to improve crop productivity and nutritional quality, addressing iron deficiency in food supplies.
Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for the productivity of crops and the quality of their derived products.
Fe deficiency-induced anemia affects billions of people worldwide.
This could be mitigated by improving the capacity of plants to absorb and store Fe, which will help to provide adequate dietary Fe to the growing global population.
Decrypting the molecular mechanisms plants have evolved to acquire Fe from the soil is essential for reaching this objective.
Recently, the secretion in th…
