Zinc-starved Brassicaceae Plants Secrete Peptides that Induce Root Expansion
2024-06-14
Abstract excerpt
Zinc (Zn) deficiency is recognized as a global crisis as it is observed in half of all agricultural soils. However, the molecular mechanisms that drive plant physiological responses to soil Zn deficiency are not well understood. We used an untargeted metabolomics approach to search for metabolites exuded from roots during Zn deficiency stress, which led to the discovery of a collection of secreted small defensin-l...
