- Abstract
This document is an editorial from the journal Frontiers in Plant Science titled "Metal transport in plants, volume II." The editorial discusses the importance of understanding elemental transport in plants for solving agricultural problems and improving human health. It highlights the essential and toxic metals that plants take up and accumulate, as well as the mechanisms they have developed for the uptake and translocation of these elements. The editorial also mentions the research papers included in the second volume of the Research Topic on Metal transport in plants, which cover topics such as iron homeostasis, zinc homeostasis, cellular Fe homeostasis and immunity, and the role of Casparian strips in preventing the diffusion of boron. The document concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding metal transport systems in adapting to a changing Earth.
