Targeted expression of the arsenate reductase HAC1 identifies cell type specificity of arsenic metabolism and transport in plant roots (2020)
Journal Article
Fischer, S., Sánchez-Bermejo, E., Xu, X., Flis, P., Ramakrishna, P., Guerinot, M. L., …Salt, D. E. (2021). Targeted expression of the arsenate reductase HAC1 identifies cell type specificity of arsenic metabolism and transport in plant roots. Journal of Experimental Botany, 72(2), 415-425. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/eraa465

High Arsenic Concentration 1 (HAC1), an Arabidopsis thaliana arsenate reductase, plays a key role in arsenate [As(V)] tolerance. Through conversion of As(V) to arsenite [As(III)], HAC1 enables As(III) export from roots, and restricts translocation of...

Effect of phosphorus supply on root traits of two Brassica oleracea L. genotypes (2020)
Journal Article
Pongrac, P., Castillo-Michel, H., Herrera, J., Hancock, R. D., Fischer, S., Kelemen, M., …White, P. J. (2020). Effect of phosphorus supply on root traits of two Brassica oleracea L. genotypes. BMC Plant Biology, 20, Article 368. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12870-020-02558-2

BACKGROUND: Phosphorus (P) deficiency limits crop production worldwide. Crops differ in their ability to acquire and utilise the P available. The aim of this study was to determine root traits (root exudates, root system architecture (RSA), tissue-sp...

Early Responses of Brassica oleracea Roots to Zinc Supply Under Sufficient and Sub-Optimal Phosphorus Supply (2020)
Journal Article
Pongrac, P., Fischer, S., Thompson, J. A., Wright, G., & White, P. J. (2020). Early Responses of Brassica oleracea Roots to Zinc Supply Under Sufficient and Sub-Optimal Phosphorus Supply. Frontiers in Plant Science, 10, Article 1645. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2019.01645

© Copyright © 2020 Pongrac, Fischer, Thompson, Wright and White. Shoot zinc (Zn) concentration in Brassica oleracea is affected by soil Zn and phosphorus (P) supply. Most problematic is the negative impact of P fertilizers on Zn concentrations in cro...
