- Observation Core PTB proteins are present at the plasma membrane of Marchantia polymorpha.
- Intervention effect Expression of M. polymorpha core PTB proteins in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae pho2 mutant rescues growth in low-Pi conditions.
- Intervention effect Core PTB mRNA levels of M. polymorpha are higher in low-Pi than in Pi-replete conditions.
- Mechanism Land plants inherited two Pi uptake mechanisms, mediated by PTB and PHT 1 proteins, from their streptophyte algal ancestor.
- Mechanism The PTB and PHT 1 Pi uptake systems operate in parallel in extant early diverging land plants.
