Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: The NAC transcription factor AtANAC070 functions in zinc tolerance by directly activating AtMTP1 transcription to promote vacuolar zinc sequestration and homeostasis in A. thaliana. Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth, but it becomes toxic when present in excess. An initial screen of Arabidopsis thaliana T-DNA insertion mutants suggested a positive role of AtANAC070 in tolerance...
