Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation The wheat genome contained 53 NRT2 genes.
- Observation The wheat genome contained 11 NRT3 genes.
- Observation Identified NRT2 and NRT3 genes formed distinct clades and homoeologous subgroups.
- Observation Clade 1 TaNRT2.1-2.6 showed root-specific expression.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen starvation significantly upregulated TaNRT2.1-2.6.
- Intervention effect Most clade 2 NRT2 genes showed reduced expression during nitrogen starvation.
- Intervention effect TaNRT2.1-2.6 responded rapidly to nitrate resupply after starvation.
- Intervention effect Clade 2 genes were gradually induced by nitrate resupply, mainly in roots.
- Observation TaNRT2.18 was highly expressed in above-ground tissues.
- Association TaNRT3 expression closely paralleled TaNRT2.1-2.6 profiles during nitrate induction.
- Recommendation The authors recommend standardized nomenclature for wheat NRT2 genes.
