This project focuses on enhancing phosphate use efficiency in foxtail millet, a critical crop for global food security. By studying and manipulating specific transport proteins involved in phosphate uptake, the project aims to improve crop yields in phosphorus-limited soils.
Phosphorus is an essential plant nutrient and is limiting for crop yield on up to 40% of arable land worldwide, including Europe.
The major scope of current proposal is the exploitation of strategies to improve the phosphate use efficiency of a key crop, foxtail millet (Setaria italica).
Several families of membrane transport proteins are involved in the uptake of Pi from soil and its distribution within the plant.
These transport proteins are referred as Pht1.
In this study we propose to charac…
