Sulfur accumulation in gypsum-forming thiophores has its roots firmly in calcium
Recent studies suggest sulfur-accumulators (thiophores and gypsophiles) produce foliar gypsum (CaSO4 2H2O) as a novel biomineralogical tolerance mechanism against sulfate salinity and excess soluble calcium (e.g. gypsic soil). However, little is known of the geochemical and ecophysiological aspects...
