Effects of source/sink manipulation on grain zinc accumulation by winter wheat genotypes
ABSTRACT Agronomy practices aimed at wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain Zn biofortification are important to alleviate Zn deficiency in humans, especially for those resource-poor people owing to subsistence on diets dominated by cereal-based foods with low concentrations and bioavailability of Zn.

Grain Zn concentration with sucrose + Zn averaged 66 mg kg-1 for ‘Kenong 9204’ and 59 mg kg-1 for ‘Liangxing 99’ in pot, and ranged from 42 to 58 mg kg-1 for ‘Liangxing 99’, ‘Jinan 17’, ‘Jimai 20’, ‘Jimai 22’, and ‘Luyuan 502’ under field, approaching the field-grown target 60 mg kg-1 proposed by World Health Organization.
