Article Synopsis
- Iron (Fe) is crucial for plant health, and this study focuses on understanding why some wheat genotypes tolerate Fe deficiency better than others.
- The wheat variety Kanchan (KAN) showed better tolerance to Fe deficiency compared to PBW343 (PBW), exhibiting delayed symptoms of chlorosis and lower stress markers during early growth.
- Molecular analyses revealed specific gene expressions related to Fe uptake and remobilization, with KAN demonstrating higher phytosiderophore production, which aids in Fe absorption, and the identification of TaZIFL4.2D as a key transporter contributing to this tolerant trait.
