Role of Micronutrients in Providing Abiotic Stress Tolerance

Abstract: Minerals and organic materials present in soil are responsible for regulatory activity of cell organelles. Micronutrients such as zinc, boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and chlorine are readily absorbed and found in lower concentrations in plant tissues. Micronutrients reduce ion toxicity, preserve water balance, improve mineral uptake and assimilation, modify various gas exchange traits and reduce oxidative stress in plants. Plants contain sufficient micronutrients that possess greater tolerance cap… Show more

“…Similar findings were obtained by the authors of [9]. The response of micronutrient application to various abiotic stresses depends on the crop, growth stage, and concentration of the nutrient solution [13]. The key mechanisms affecting the ability of micronutrients and macronutrients to alleviate the effects of drought stress include enhancing water uptake and transport, regulating stomatal behavior, and transpirational water loss [14].…”

“…Examples of micronutrients are boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and nickel (Ni). They have various functions related to photosynthesis, plant production, and plant hormone regulation [127]. However, exceeding the optimum concentrations of micronutrients can be toxic for plants.…”

“…During water stress, for example, micronutrients like zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and boron (B) have been found to enhance drought tolerance and improve water-use efficiency in plants [24]. These micronutrients influence the expression of stress-associated genes and the production of osmolytes, which help plants conserve water and maintain cell turgor under drought conditions [25].…”
