主 题:functional conservation metal nutrient magnesium long-distance transport phenotyping
摘 要:Magnesium(Mg^(2+)),an essential structural component of chlorophyll,is absorbed from the soil by roots and transported to shoots to support photosynthesis in ***,the molecular mechanisms underlying root-to-shoot Mg^(2+)translocation remain largely *** describe here the identification of four plasma membrane(PM)-localized transporters,named Mg^(2+)release transporters(MGRs),that are critical for root-to-shoot Mg transport in *** complementation assays in a Mg^(2+)-uptake-defi-cient bacterial strain confirmed that these MGRs conduct Mg^(2+)***-localized MGRs(MGR4,MGR5,MGR6,and MGR7)were expressed primarily in root stellar cells and participated in the xylem loading step of the long-distance Mg^(2+)transport *** particular,MGR4 and MGR6 played a major role in shoot Mg homeostasis,as their loss-of-function mutants were hypersensitive to low Mg^(2+)but tolerant to high Mg^(2+)*** grafting analysis further demonstrated that MGR4 functions in the root to determine shoot Mg^(2+)accumulation and physiological phenotypes caused by both low-and high-Mg^(2+)*** together,our study has identified the long-sought transporters responsible for root-to-shoot Mg^(2+)translocation in plants.
