Abstract
Compositions and method of delivering a molecule to a plant are provided. In an embodiment, an avenic acid transporter is introduced into a plant. The plant may be a non-graminacious or dicotyledonous plant which does not comprise the transporter in the wild type form. The transporter may be modified to increase uptake of avenic acid along with iron chelated by the avenic acid and/or a molecule conjugated with the avenic acid. Further embodiments provide for conjugating the avenic acid with a molecule for uptake and delivery to the plant. In this manner plant health may be improved by uptake of iron where it would otherwise not occur and/or uptake of the conjugated molecule. The molecule may be a molecule that improves health of the plant. Still further embodiments provide for analogs of avenic acid. Embodiments provide for interplantingwhich natively produces avenic acid with another plant. Additional embodiments provide for time release of avenic acid provided to a plant.
