The Interaction of Genotype and Environment Determines Variation in the Maize Kernel Ionome
Plants obtain soil-resident elements that support growth and metabolism from the water-flow facilitated by transpiration and active transport processes. The availability of elements in the environment interacts with the genetic capacity of organisms to modulate element uptake through plastic adaptiv...
