However, exogenous IAA application alleviated the adverse effects of FeD, particularly through promoted H\u2010ATPase and FeCR activities, and Fe\n                          <jats:sup>2+<\/jats:sup>\n                          concentration.\n                        <\/jats:p>\n                      <\/jats:list-item>\n                      <jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:p>The polar transport of IAA promoted root growth, H\u2010ATPase and FeCR activities under FeD. The resulted Fe promotes chlorophyll biosynthesis and photosynthetic functioning. The calculated rhizosphere acidification capacity (RAC) and Fe chelate reductase capacity (FeCRC) are two useful traits for tolerant plant screening. The exogenous IAA application is a useful, efficient and eco\u2010friendly approach for Fe\u2010chlorosis alleviation.
