Potassium deficiency reinforces the endodermal but not the exodermal suberized barrier in maize seminal roots

This study shows that potassium deficiency in maize increases endodermal suberin and reduces passage cells, reinforcing the endodermal barrier but not the exodermal one, limiting K leakage from the stele.

Genomic Loci Associated with Grain Protein and Mineral Nutrients concentrations in Eragrostis tef under Contrasting Water Regimes

This study identifies genomic loci associated with grain protein and mineral nutrient concentrations in tef under contrasting water regimes, revealing genetic basis and environmental interactions.

Variation in phosphorus and sulfur content shapes the genetic architecture and phenotypic associations within wheat grain ionome

The paper adjusts ionome element concentrations for phosphorus and sulfur variation in wheat, identifying QTLs and improving genetic understanding of mineral composition.
