Abstract excerpt
Spatial heterogeneity of soil phosphorus (P) severely constrains maize productivity, yet the regulatory mechanisms underlying plant adaptation to heterogeneous P supply remain poorly understood. This study reveals the distinct roles of the transcription factors ZmPHR1 and ZmPHR2 in mediating metabolic and rhizosphere microbial responses to heterogeneous P supply in maize (Zea mays L.). Using split-root systems...
