Leaf mineral nutrient remobilization during leaf senescence and modulation by nutrient deficiency.
Higher plants have to cope with fluctuating mineral resource availability. However strategies such as stimulation of root growth, increased transporter activities, and nutrient storage and remobilization have been mostly studied for only a few macronutrients. Leaves of cultivated crops (Zea mays, Br...
