Characterization of AMT-mediated high-affinity ammonium uptake in roots of maize (Zea mays L.).

Plant & cell physiology - 1 Sept 2013

Abstract excerpt

High-affinity ammonium uptake in plant roots is mainly mediated by AMT1-type ammonium transporters, and their regulation varies depending on the plant species. In this study we aimed at characterizing AMT-mediated ammonium transport in maize, for which ammonium-based fertilizer is an important nitrogen (N) source. Two ammonium transporter genes, ZmAMT1;1a and ZmAMT1;3, were isolated from a maize root-specific...
