Abstract
Mineral nutrients (macronutrients and micronutrients) play major roles in seed development, plant growth, and regulation. Plants take them from the soil through their root systems, combine them with sunlight, and synthesize compounds needed for their growth and development; therefore, an absence or scarceness of one or more of these essential elements can cause mineral deficiencies symptoms such as chlorosis, necrosis, dwarfism, sterility, impairments in flowers and/or fruit development, etc. In this chapter, we summarized QTL mapping data for iron (Fe) deficiency, manganese (Mn) toxicity, aluminum (Al) tolerance, water use efficiency (WUE), phosphorus efficiency (PE), and shoot minerals (B, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, P, S, and Zn) contents. Candidate genes for these traits are also discussed.
