Abstract excerpt
Zinc (Zn) is an essential element for plants that can be accumulated to very high levels in shoots of some special plant species named hyperaccumulators. Various strategies have been used in recent years to unravel the molecular bases of such an unusual Zn transport and storage, especially in Brassicacea species. In these studies, several Zn transporters and chelators have been identified that exist both in...
