Natural allelic variation of FRO2 modulates Arabidopsis root growth under iron deficiency

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plants and a lack of iron availability limits crop yield in many parts of the world. Here the authors show that natural variation in root growth ofArabidopsis plants under iron deficiency can be caused by allelic variation at the FRO2locus.
