Abstract

Potassium (K(+)) is inevitable for plant growth and development. It plays a crucial role in the regulation of enzyme activities, in adjusting the electrical membrane potential and the cellular turgor, in regulating cellular homeostasis and in the stabilization of protein synthesis. Uptake of K(+) from the soil and its transport to growing organs is essential for a healthy plant development. Uptake and allocation of K(+) are performed by K(+) channels and transporters belonging to different protein families. In this review we summarize the knowledge on the versatile physiological roles of plant K(+) channels and their behavior under stress conditions in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 11. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 April 2023.
All research outputs
#3,007,107
of 23,572,509 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#1,496
of 21,656 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#31,254
of 284,650 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#32
of 517 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,572,509 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 21,656 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 284,650 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 517 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
