Ecophysiology of iron homeostasis in plants (2016, background): “The Arabidospis VIT1 was recently identified as a Fe2+ transporter that functions in vacuolar Fe storage (Kim et al. 2006), and 62% of VIT1 is similar to its yeast ortholog CCC1p, a transporter that can mediate Fe and Mn efflux into vacuoles (Li et al. 2001).”
Mechanism of Zinc absorption in plants: uptake, transport, translocation and accumulation (2016, background): “Functional divergence has been found in VIT orthologs of different plant species (Kim et al. 2006; Momonoi et al. 2009).”
Iron and zinc biofortification strategies in dicot plants by intercropping with gramineous species. A review (2011, background): “Vacuolar Fe storage is also critical for seedling development that will ultimately aid to increase the chances of obtaining a nutrient-rich seed, benefiting both human health and agricultural productivity (Kim et al., 2006).”
Iron uptake mechanisms in plants: Functions of the FRO family of ferric reductases (2009, background): “Transporters that import and export iron across the vacuolar membrane have been characterized; VIT1 (vacuolar iron transporter 1) imports iron into the vacuole [57], while NRAMP3 and NRAMP4 both export iron from vacuoles [58] (Fig.”
Producing more with less: Strategies and novel technologies for plant-based food biofortification (2013, background): “It seems that Fe is loaded into seed vacuoles by the VIT1 protein (Kim et al., 2006) and it is remobilized from the vacuole by the Nramp3 and Nramp4 transporters (Lanquar et al., 2005).”

ROLE OF IRON IN PLANT GROWTH AND METABOLISM (2015, background): “Kim et al. (2006) reported that the Arabidopsis vacuolar iron transporter, VIT1, is highly expressed in developing seeds, and it transports Fe and Mn into the vacuole.”
Iron Uptake and Loading into Rice Grains (2010, background): “Transporters that are involved in both vacuolar Fe influx and efflux have been identified, and they have been shown to be essential for germination and seedling development in Arabidopsis (Lanquar et al. 2005; Kim et al. 2006).”
