Improving nutrient efficiency is important for agricultural sustainability. In the invited review article written by Chen and Liao (pp. 710‐735), it is proposed that integrations of nutrient acquisition, translocation, remobilization and metabolic efficiency may help crops to achieve a higher nutrient use efficiency, and the strategies that can be used.
