Mutation in <i>OsFWL7</i> Affects Cadmium and Micronutrient Metal Accumulation in Rice
Micronutrient metals, such as Mn, Cu, Fe, and Zn, are essential heavy metals for plant growth and development, while Cd is a nonessential heavy metal that is highly toxic to both plants and humans. Our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying Cd and micronutrient metal accumulation in pl...
