Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os06g21920
• RAPdb gene ID: Os06g0324800
• Gene Symbol: OsPht1 9 OsPT9
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Conversely, although no alterations in Pi concentration were found in OsPT9 or OsPT10 knockdown plants, a significant reduction in Pi concentration in both shoots and roots was observed in double-knockdown plants grown under both high- and low-Pi conditions.
• OsPT9 and OsPT10 were expressed in the root epidermis, root hairs and lateral roots, with their expression being specifically induced by Pi starvation.
• High-affinity Km values for Pi transport of OsPT9 and OsPT10 were determined by yeast experiments and two-electrode voltage clamp analysis of anion transport in Xenopus oocytes expressing OsPT9 and OsPT10.
• Pi uptake and Pi concentrations in transgenic plants harbouring overexpressed OsPT9 and OsPT10 were determined by Pi concentration analysis and (33) P-labelled Pi uptake rate analysis.
• Taken together, our results suggest that OsPT9 and OsPT10 redundantly function in Pi uptake.
• We characterized the function of two rice phosphate (Pi) transporters: OsPht1;9 (OsPT9) and OsPHT1;10 (OsPT10).
• Phosphate transporters OsPht1;9 and OsPHT1;10 are involved in phosphate uptake in rice.
