Iron and Zinc in the Embryo and Endosperm of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Seeds in Contrasting 20-Deoxymugineic Acid/Nicotianamine Scenarios
Díaz-Benito, Pablo; Banakar, Raviraj; Rodríguez-Menéndez, Sara; Capell Capell, Teresa; Pereiro, Rosario; Christou, Paul; Abadía Bayona, Javier; Fernández, Beatriz; Álvarez-Fernández, Ana (Frontiers Media, 2018)Iron and Zn deficiencies are worldwide nutritional disorders that can be alleviated by increasing the metal concentration of rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains via bio-fortification approaches. The overproduction of the metal ... -
Phytosiderophores determine thresholds for iron and zinc accumulation in biofortified rice endosperm while inhibiting the accumulation of cadmium
Banakar, Raviraj; Alvarez Fernández, Ána; Díaz-Benito, Pablo; Abadía Bayona, Javier; Capell Capell, Teresa; Christou, Paul (Oxford University Press, 2017)Nicotianamine (NA) and 2′-deoxymugenic acid (DMA) are metal-chelating ligands that promote the accumulation of metals in rice endosperm, but it is unclear how these phytosiderophores regulate the levels of different metals ... -
The expression of heterologous Fe (III) phytosiderophore transporter HvYS1 in rice increases Fe uptake, translocation and seed loading and excludes heavy metals by selective Fe transport
Banakar, Raviraj; Alvarez Fernández, Ána; Abadía Bayona, Javier; Capell Capell, Teresa; Christou, Paul (Wiley, 2016)Many metal transporters in plants are promiscuous, accommodating multiple divalent cations including some which are toxic to humans. Previous attempts to increase the iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) content of rice endosperm by ...
