Plant roots are crucial in the uptake, selection, enrichment, and retention of a variety of mineral elements, which supply distant plant tissues with nutrients and sequesters excess metals. A variety of ion transporters found at roots mediate the absorption, efflux, and intracellular compartmentalization of various mineral elements to carry out such element-specific tasks.
