Identification and Expression Analysis of Glutamine Synthetase Genes in Ramie (Boehmeria nivea L. Gaud)

Glutamine synthetase (GS) plays a fundamental role in nitrogen metabolism in higher plants. Three BnGS genes have first been isolated: one gene encoding plastid GS (BnGS2) and two encoding cytosolic GS (BnGS1-1 and BnGS1-2) in ramie. Based on a sequence analysis and phylogenetic study, three BnGS se...
