Identification and characterization of HAK/KUP/KT potassium transporter gene family in barley and their expression under abiotic stress

Abstract Background HAK/KUP/KT (High-affinity K+ transporters/K+ uptake permeases/K+ transporters) is the largest potassium transporter family in plants, and plays pivotal roles in K+ uptake and transport, as well as biotic and abiotic stress responses. However, our understanding of the gene family...
