Abstract:
Rice is the extensively consumed cereal staple food grain crop. More than 50% of the world's human population, particularly in Asia and Africa consume and there are provide carbohydrates and protein but in grain less amount present micronutrient specially zinc and iron. Micronutrient deficiency and hidden hunger was major problems in the world wild especially zinc (Zn). India declared new Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) of zinc is 17 mg for men and 13.2 mg for women and in Global Hunger Index (2022), India ranks 107th out of the 121 countries. With a score of 29.1, India has a level of hunger that is serious. Due to Zn deficiency one forth part of world suffering for different disease (weakened immune system, losses of hair, diarrhea, eye and skin lesions, and mental lethargy) Zinc absorption from soil also dependent on soil PH and other nutrient present in soil. Zn distribution in grain it’s depended on genetic characteristic of the plant, environmental factors, and crop management application. Some protein group (ZIP1, ZIP3, and ZIP4) present on plasma membranes those are help for absorption of Zn and different transporter (OsZIP1, OsZIP3 and OsZIP4) help in Zn translocation in grain. Rice plant use has different strategies for Zn distribution in grains. In contrast to other plants, rice leaves are not a source of zinc for grains so, plants deliver Zn to grains at the time of post-flowering through xylem transport.
