Understanding the role of the antioxidant system and the tetrapyrrole cycle in ...
Santos, Carla S.; Ozgur, Rengin; Uzilday, Baris; Turkan, Ismail; Roriz, Mariana; Rangel, António O. S. S.; Carvalho, Susana M. P.; Vasconcelos, Marta W.Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is an abiotic stress often experienced by soybean, owing to the low solubility of iron in alkaline soils. Here, soybean lines with contrasting Fe efficiencies were analyzed to test the hypothesis that the Fe efficiency trait is linked to antioxidative stress signaling via proper management of tissue Fe accumulation and transport, which in turn influences the regulation of heme an...
Opportunities and limitations of crop phenotyping in southern european countries
Costa, Joaquim Miguel; Silva, Jorge Marques da; Pinheiro, Carla; Barón, Matilde; Mylona, Photini; Centritto, Mauro; Haworth, Matthew; Loreto, FrancescoThe Mediterranean climate is characterized by hot dry summers and frequent droughts.
