Functional characterization of 14 Pht1 family genes in yeast and their expressions in response to nutrient starvation in soybean.
BACKGROUND: Phosphorus (P) is essential for plant growth and development. Phosphate (Pi) transporter genes in the Pht1 family play important roles in Pi uptake and translocation in plants. Although Pht1 family genes have been well studied in model plants, little is known about their functions in soy...
