Plant sulfate transporters in the low phytic acid network : some educated guesses / G.A. Sacchi, F.F. Nocito. - In: PLANTS. - ISSN 2223-7747. - 8:12(2019 Dec 17), pp. 616.1-616.10. [10.3390/plants8120616]
Abstract:
A few new papers report that mutations in some genes belonging to the group 3 of plant sulfate transporter family result in low phytic acid phenotypes, drawing novel strategies and approaches for engineering the low-phytate trait in cereal grains. Here, we shortly review the current knowledge on phosphorus/sulfur interplay and sulfate transport regulation in plants, to critically discuss some hypotheses that could help in unveiling the physiological links between sulfate transport and phosphorus accumulation in seeds.
