Book ChapterDOI
Function of nutrients: micronutrients
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the functions of iron, manganese, copper, zinc, nickel, molybdenum, boron, and chlorine in plants and describes the effects of their deficiency and toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of calcium in salt toxicity
TL;DR: Ameliorative effects of supplemental Ca2+ on salt stress are exerted through preventing Na+-related changes in the cell Ca2+, which are suggested here to be the primary responses to salt stress that are perceived by root cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved tolerance of maize plants to salt stress by arbuscular mycorrhiza is related to higher accumulation of soluble sugars in roots.
TL;DR: Higher requirement for carbohydrates by AM fungi induces higher soluble sugar accumulation in host root tissues, which is independent of improvement in plant P status and enhances resistance to salt-induced osmotic stress in the mycorrhizal plant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrient availability and management in the rhizosphere: exploiting genotypic differences
Zed Rengel,Petra Marschner +1 more
TL;DR: Understanding the role of plant-microbe-soil interactions in governing nutrient availability in the rhizosphere will enhance the economic and environmental sustainability of crop production.
