This project investigates small signaling peptides in legumes that enhance nutrient use efficiency by improving phosphorus uptake and nitrogen fixation. By understanding these peptides' roles, the project aims to develop strategies for better nutrient management in agriculture.
Plants in the legume (Fabaceae) family are able to fix atmospheric N2 under N-limiting conditions, thereby diminishing the need for N-fertilization. N2-fixation has a high requirement for photosynthates and ATP, and is thus tightly controlled by both the N-availability in the soil and P-level in the plant.
Increasing the P-uptake through formation of branched root system and abundant root hairs will increase the N2-fixing capacity and thereby improve the overall nutrient use efficiency (NUE).
