Advances in Plant Nutrition: Essential Elements, Uptake Mechanisms, and Physiological Significance
Author(s): Kavita Rao*
Plant nutrition is a fundamental aspect of plant growth and development, influencing productivity, stress tolerance, and overall ecosystem function. Plants require a balanced supply of essential macro- and micronutrients to support physiological processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, enzyme activation, and cell division. Nutrient uptake involves complex interactions between root systems, soil properties, and microbial communities that enhance nutrient availability. Modern research reveals that plants employ sophisticated molecular transporters, signaling pathways, and regulatory networks to maintain inte.. View More»
