Abstract excerpt
Inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6 ) provides a phosphorous reservoir in plant seeds; in addition, along with its biosynthesis intermediates and derivatives, IP6 also plays important roles in diverse developmental and physiological processes. Disruption of the Arabidopsis inositol pentakisphosphate 2-kinase coding gene AtIPK1 was previously shown to reduce IP6 content in vegetative tissues and affect phosphate (Pi)...
