Zinc is an essential micronutrient for enzyme activity, plant growth, and reproduction. This session will discuss zinc uptake and transport processes, root transporters, and rhizosphere interactions. Participants will be informed of how stunted growth and leaf deformities are triggered by zinc deficiency. The session focuses on zinc's activation of enzymes, protein synthesis, and reproductive growth. Researchers will share case studies of zinc bioavailability in various soils. Participants will learn about strategies for biofortification in order to improve zinc content in food crops. Molecular processes involved in zinc homeostasis and regulation are also to be discussed. The session emphasizes the role of zinc nutrition in human health through crop improvement. Participants will learn how nutrient-efficient genotypes can be cultivated for zinc-deficient areas. Practical strategies for fertilizer management and microbial inoculants that enhance zinc uptake will be made available. This session combines plant physiology, molecular biology, and sustainable agriculture to deal with global zinc nutrition issues.
Welcome to Plant Biology Conference 2026, where global researchers, academicians, and ecologists unite to share advancements in plant genetics, physiology, biotechnology, ecology, and sustainable agriculture and conservation practices.
