Root morphological and physiological characteristics in maize seedlings adapted to low iron stress

Iron (Fe) deficiency is a common challenge in crop production. Screening and research of Fe-efficient cultivars could alleviate plant stress and increase crop yields in Fe-deficient soils. In the present study, we conducted two hydroponic culture experiments with a control (100 μmol/L Fe3+-EDTA) and...
