Abstract excerpt
Several phosphate transporters (PTs) that belong to the Pht2 family have been released in bioinformatics databases, but only a few members of this family have been functionally characterized. In this study, we found that wheat TaPHT2;1 shared high identity with a subset of Pht2 in diverse plants. Expression analysis revealed that TaPHT2;1 was strongly expressed in the leaves, was up-regulated by low Pi stress,...
