Nickel: a micronutrient essential for higher plants.
Nickel was established as an essential micronutrient for the growth of temperate cereal crops. Grain from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv ;Onda'; containing 40 to 80 nanograms of Ni per gram dry weight) grown in solution culture with negligible Ni concentrations (< 30 nanograms of Ni per liter) exhibited greatly reduced germination rates (i.e. 50% less than grain from Ni-adequate plants) and seed...
متن کاملMolybdenum as an Essential Element for Higher Plants.
The preliminary findings that molybdenlum, in minute amounts, improved the growth of barley plants in a culture solution supplied with ammonium salts as the sole source of nitrogen (1), and that a group of seven heavy metals including molybdenum increased the growth of lettuce and asparagus (2), supported the view that the list of essential elements for higher plants is incomplete and suggested...
متن کاملZinc: an essential micronutrient.
Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human metabolism that catalyzes more than 100 enzymes, facilitates protein folding, and helps regulate gene expression. Patients with malnutrition, alcoholism, inflammatory bowel disease, and malabsorption syndromes are at an increased risk of zinc deficiency. Symptoms of zinc deficiency are nonspecific, including growth retardation, diarrhea, alopecia, gl...
متن کاملSelenium: A Micronutrient Essential for Maintaining Human Health
Selenium is a fundamental importance to human health. It is an essential trace element for major metabolic pathways, since selenium is an essential component of glutathione peroxidase enzyme. Diet is the main source of selenium. Selenoproteins in mammalian cells indicated that essential role of selenium in the body’s antioxidant defense system.
متن کاملVitamin D: a critical and essential micronutrient for human health
Vitamin D is a micronutrient that is needed for optimal health throughout the whole life. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) can be either synthesized in the human skin upon exposure to the UV light of the sun, or it is obtained from the diet. If the photoconversion in the skin due to reduced sun exposure (e.g., in wintertime) is insufficient, intake of adequate vitamin D from the diet is essential t...
