Disruption of an amino acid transporter LHT1 leads to growth inhibition and low yields in rice

Abstract Background Research on plant amino acid transporters was mainly performed in Arabidopsis, while our understanding of them is generally scant in rice. OsLHT1 (Lysine/Histidine transporter) has been previously reported as a histidine transporter in yeast, but its substrate profile and functio...
