Molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) has been applied widely in industrial and environmental application, leading to increasing release into environment. So far, no studies have been investigated with regard to the potential effect of MoS2 on plants. Herein, we studied the impact of MoS2 on the growth,
The mineral concentrations in cereals are important for human health, especially for individuals who consume a cereal subsistence diet. A number of elements, such as zinc, are required within the diet, while some elements are toxic to humans, for example arsenic. In this study we carry out
The patterns of molybdenum (MoO(4) (2-)) absorption and transport were investigated in intact bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. I.R.8) plants. The mobility of MoO(4) (2-) absorbed by roots and by leaves was compared with that of a freely mobile element, Rb(+). Although
Rice is a major dietary source of essential mineral nutrients and toxic elements (aka ionome) for humans. However, the genetic basis underlying the variation in ionome is still largely unknown. Here, we mapped 51 and 61 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling the concentrations of 13 and 15
Molybdenum (Mo) is an essential micronutrient for most living organisms, including humans. Cereals such as rice (Oryza sativa) are the major dietary source of Mo. However, little is known about the genetic basis of the variation in Mo content in rice grain. We mapped a quantitative trait locus (QTL)
Rice (Oryza sativa) is an important dietary source of both the essential micronutrients and the toxic trace elements to humans. The genetic basis underlying the variations in the mineral composition, the ionome, in rice remains largely unknown. Here, we describe a comprehensive study of the genetic
Element profile was investigated for their use to trace the geographical origin of rice (Oryza sativa L.) samples. The concentrations of 13 elements (calcium (Ca), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), boron (B), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), arsenic (As), selenium
A synthesis of available agronomic datasets and peer-reviewed scientific literature was conducted to: (1) assess the status of micronutrients in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) arable soils, (2) improve the understanding of the relations between soil quality/management and crop nutritional quality and (3)
