A node-localized efflux transporter for loading iron to developing tissues in rice

Che et al. identify a rice gene OsIET, which encodes a ferrous iron transporter in the node. Its disruption impairs Fe distribution to developing tissues, causing leaf chlorosis and reduced grain yield.

Shoot-Silicon-Signal protein to regulate root silicon uptake in rice

Shoot-Silicon-Signal (OsFTL12) protein is expressed only in the rice shoot response to Si deficiency. Yet, the protein is also detected in phloem sap and root, stimulating the root Si uptake. This signal integrates shoot Si demand and root Si uptake.

Natural allelic variation of FRO2 modulates Arabidopsis root growth under iron deficiency

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plants and a lack of iron availability limits crop yield in many parts of the world. Here the authors show that natural variation in root growth ofArabidopsis plants under iron deficiency can be caused by allelic variation at the FRO2locus.

Agronomic management drives the wheat yield plateau in high-yielding environments of northwest Europe

Wheat yields in northwest Europe have plateaued since the mid-1990s. This study finds that no ceiling in genetic yield potential has been reached and that climatic conditions have not constrained wheat yields across high-yielding environments in the region thus far; suboptimal agronomic management is responsible for unrealized wheat yield progress of 67–114 kg ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹ during the period 1994–2016.
