Metal species involved in long distance metal transport in plants
The mechanisms plants use to transport metals from roots to shoots are not completely understood. It has long been proposed that organic molecules participate in metal translocation within the plant. However, until recently the identity of the complexes involved in the long-distance transport of metals could only be inferred by using indirect methods, such as analyzing separately the concentrat...
متن کاملVacuolar sequestration capacity and long-distance metal transport in plants
The vacuole is a pivotal organelle functioning in storage of metabolites, mineral nutrients, and toxicants in higher plants. Accumulating evidence indicates that in addition to its storage role, the vacuole contributes essentially to long-distance transport of metals, through the modulation of Vacuolar sequestration capacity (VSC) which is shown to be primarily controlled by cytosolic metal che...
متن کاملLong distance transport.
A few years ago, I attended a 1-day symposium on long distance transport at a national meeting in a country abroad. Towards the end of the day, as the participants became tired and no general agreement was in sight, one observer from an allied discipline remarked, "Why can't you translocation workers make any progress, you still discuss the same miserable old models that were proposed 40 years ...
متن کاملCope’s Rule and the evolution of long-distance transport in vascular plants: allometric scaling, biomass partitioning and optimization
Recent advances in allometric theory have proposed a novel quantitative framework by which to view the evolution of plant form and function. This general theory has placed strong emphasis on the importance of long-distance transport in shaping the evolution of many attributes of plant form and function. Specifically, it is hypothesized that with the evolutionary increase in plant size natural s...
متن کاملLong-distance dispersal of plants.
Long-distance dispersal (LDD) of plants poses challenges to research because it involves rare events driven by complex and highly stochastic processes. The current surge of renewed interest in LDD, motivated by growing recognition of its critical importance for natural populations and communities and for humanity, promises an improved, quantitatively derived understanding of LDD. To gain deep i...
