Iron (Fe) Nutrition of Plants

Role of the rhizosphere in iron nutrition of plants

Application of Medicinal Plants in Poultry Nutrition

Application of most antibiotic growth promoters as feed additives has been banned in a lot of countries due to cross-resistance against pathogens and residues in tissues. Therefore, scientists are searching for alternatives to antibiotics nowadays. Medicinal plant extracts are one of the alternatives that have anti-microbial and growth promoting effect on poultry. In this paper, the benefits of...

The role of unchelated Fe in the iron nutrition of phytoplankton

The important question of iron bioavailability in the sea has become complicated by the discovery that marine phytoplankton can take up Fe bound in very stable chelates via reductive processes, and some particular Fe species through specialized transport mechanisms. As a result there is some question of whether the small fraction of Fe that is ‘‘free’’ or unchelated in seawater is important in ...
