Most land plants live in close contact with beneficial soil microbes: the majority of land plant
species establish symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, while most legumes, the third …

Membrane transport systems are crucial elements for plant nutrition and development as
they play a key role in the absorption of mineral nutrients and water at the root level but also …

Soil nutrient acquisition and exchanges through symbiotic plant–fungus interactions in the
rhizosphere are key features for the current agricultural and environmental challenges …

Transporters move hydrophilic substrates across hydrophobic biological membranes and
play key roles in plant nutrition, metabolism, and signaling and, consequently, in plant …

Background Plant membrane transporters are involved in diverse cellular processes
underpinning plant physiology, such as nutrient acquisition, hormone movement, resource …

As the second largest crop family, legumes provide a significant component to the human
diet as well as livestock nutrition through forage species. Unique from most other plants …

In arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis, key components of nutrient uptake and exchange
are specialized transporters that facilitate nutrient transport across membranes. As …
