A review of zinc nutrition and plant breeding. (2013, background): “For example, the seed Zn concentration of wheat cultivars ranged from 25 to 64 mg/kg (Frossard et al., 2000), and the seed Zn content of field-grown barley varied from 0.7 to 2.9 μg/ seed (Sadeghzadeh, 2008).”
Microbial Zinc Solubilization and Their Role on Plants (2011, background): “Crop production-based approaches such as regular application of micronutrient fertilizers and adoption of crop rotation (Frossard et al. 2000) are also”
Identification of quantitative trait locus of zinc and phosphorus density in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain (2008, background): “Since the biofortification idea has been suggested (Frossard et al. 2000; Bouis 2002), most of the research is preliminary.”
Does increased zinc uptake enhance grain zinc mass concentration in rice (2008, unknown): “Increasing the ZnMC in the grains of these crops is considered a sustainable way to alleviate human Zn deficiency (Graham, 1984; Prasad, 1984; Graham & Welch, 1996; Rengel et al., 1999; Frossard et al., 2000; Von Braun et al., 2005).”
Micronutrient-efficient genotypes for crop yield and nutritional quality in sustainable agriculture. A review (2011, background): “…by increasing (bioavailable) micronutrient density in food plants by agricultural methods of crop cultivation, for example by fertilizer application or by amendments that increase the element’s bioavailability in the soil for plant uptake (Frossard et al., 2000; Graham et al., 2001; Welch, 2002).”
Managing the Nutrition of Plants and People (2012, unknown): “The major constraint to crop production on calcareous or alkaline soils is often the low phytoavailability of Fe, Zn, Mn, or Cu [10, 17, 19, 21, 27, 34].”
Inheritance of Seed Zinc Accumulation in Navy Bean (2005, methodology): “A high seed Zn cultivar ‘Voyager’ ciency (Frossard et al., 2000).and a low seed Zn cultivar ‘Albion’ were used to create the F2 and One way to alleviate Zn deficiency in humans main-backcross populations that were field grown in 1999 and 2000.”
Achievements and limitations of contemporary common bean breeding using conventional and molecular approaches (2009, background): “Enhancing the level of these micronutrients in common bean cultivars has the potential to improve human nutrition in developing countries (Guzmán-Maldonado et al. 2003; Frossard et al. 2000).”
