Proper transport of metal and their homeostasis is very crucial for the growth and development of plants. Plants root are the primary organs which comes in contact with the stress and thus few modifications occurs, often determining the nutrient efficiency or sometimes as a stress tolerance mechanism. Plant utilizes two strategies for the uptake of iron viz, strategy I-reduction based and strategy II-chelation based. In this review we attempted for a better understanding of how the chelators acts in the mechanism of iron uptake from soils to plants and how iron is distributed in the plants.
