Uptake of Mineral Elements During Abiotic Stress

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Abiotic Stress Responses in Plants

Abstract

Several environmental factors influence the mineral uptake of plants, including pH, redox potential, and the presence of xenobiotics as well as the temperature and salinity. Changes in environmental conditions affect the biological and physiological response of plants. Most important targets of plants are maintained by the ion homeostasis and mineral uptake in stress conditions. Plants may use the different procedures to regulate homeostasis. In general, Na salt stress decreases the levels of cationic nutrients such as K, Ca, and Mg due to competition for ion transport sites. Drought and salinity stress are physiologically related and the tolerance mechanisms overlap. Metals can interfere with mineral nutrition and change the concentration and composition of plant nutrients. Besides, metals may also alter the conformation of proteins, including transporters, or regulator proteins. Herbicides may disrupt the function and integrity of the cell membrane, and significant ion losses can occur. However, molecular mechanisms and genetic basis of interactions between abiotic stress and mineral uptake is lacking. Thus, future studies will focus on these aspects. In this chapter, the effects of some common stressors, such as salinity, drought, metals, herbicides, and on nutrient uptake are elucidated.
