Transporters involved in root nitrate uptake and sensing by Arabidopsis
Most plants use nitrate (NO3-) as their major nitrogen (N) source. The NO3- uptake capacity of a plant is determined by three interdependent factors that are sensitive to NO3- availability: (i) the functional properties of the transporters in the roots that contribute to the acquisition of NO3- from...
