MhLHCA2 contributes to apple responses to iron deficiency by supporting photosynthetic performance and Fe-related physiological processes
Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. However, its bioavailability is extremely low in calcareous and alkaline soils, frequently resulting in Fe deficiency stress. In this study, MhLHCA2 was investigated using stable MhLHCA2 -overexpressing apple calli lines and vi...
