Visualization of zinc dynamics in intact plants using positron imaging of commercially available 65Zn

Abstract Background Positron imaging can be used to non-destructively visualize the dynamics of a positron-emitting radionuclide in vivo, and is therefore a tool for understanding the mechanisms of nutrient transport in intact plants. The transport of zinc, which is one of the most important nutrien...
