Abstract excerpt
Plants absorb sulfur from the environment and assimilate it into suitable forms for the biosynthesis of a broad range of molecules. Although the biochemical pathway of sulfur assimilation is known, how genetic differences contribute to natural variation in sulfur assimilation remains poorly understood. Here, using a genome-wide association study, we uncovered a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant in the...
