Figure 6

A model of RP genes and proteins involved in Pi/Fe deficiency homeostasis. Upon Pi/Fe deficiency (and other abiotic stresses), plants sense the stress signal and the RPs, RP genes, as well as non-RP genes are differentially expressed, inducing downstream signal transduction. Some genes might be selectively recruited to the remodeled ribosome leading to biased translation, probably adapting plants to Pi- and Fe-deficiency.
