Journal ArticleDOI
Zinc biofortification of cereals: problems and solutions
Michael G. Palmgren,Stephan Clemens,Lorraine E. Williams,Ute Krämer,Søren Borg,Jan K. Schjørring,Dale Sanders +6 more
TL;DR: New findings demonstrate that the root-shoot distribution of zinc is controlled mainly by heavy metal transporting P1B-ATPases and the metal tolerance protein (MTP) family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular genetic approaches to increasing mineral availability and vitamin content of cereals
TL;DR: Attempts to increase phytase activity in the grain by transformation and the potential of this approach as well as the reduction of phytate biosynthesis for improving the bioavailability of iron and zinc are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
A roadmap for zinc trafficking in the developing barley grain based on laser capture microdissection and gene expression profiling
TL;DR: A working model is proposed for the translocation of zinc from the phloem to the storage sites in the developing grain and the expression levels of a number of metal homeostasis genes are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron transport, deposition and bioavailability in the wheat and barley grain.
TL;DR: This paper provides a tentative and preliminary roadmap for iron trafficking in the barley grain and reviews existing knowledge on the distribution and transport pathways of iron in the two small grained cereals, barley and wheat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of new protein species among 33 different small GTP-binding proteins encoded by cDNAs from Lotus japonicus, and expression of corresponding mRNAs in developing root nodules.
TL;DR: It is suggested that most small GTPases have household functions, whereas a few may be required for specialized activities that are important for specialized cells.
