The Physiological Mechanisms Underlying N2-Fixing Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Tolerance to Iron Deficiency

Abstract: Iron is an essential element for plants as well as all living organisms, functioning in various physiological and biochemical processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, DNA synthesis, and N 2 fixation. In the soil, Fe bioavailability is extremely low, especially under aerobic conditions and at high pH ranges. In contrast, plants with nodules on their roots that fix atmospheric nitrogen need much more iron. To highlight the physiological traits underlying the tolerance of N 2 -fixing common bean to iron def… Show more

“…In the plant, Fe exists mainly in the ferric form, and much of the Fe is found in the plastids. Another significant pool of Fe is found in the apoplast (extracellular area) of the older root parts, but it is thought this pool plays little role in supplying shoots with Fe at the installation of Fe deficiency [8]. Iron is relatively immobile once incorporated into compounds in the upper parts of plants.…”
