Low phosphate activates STOP1-ALMT1 to rapidly inhibit root cell elongation

Low Pi availability inhibits primary root growth, but the sensory mechanisms are not known. Here the authors uncover a signalling pathway regulating Pi-mediated root growth inhibition inArabidopsis, involving the transcription factor STOP1, its direct target ALMT1, a malate channel, and ferroxidase...
