Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesC83B01G285900
• Gene Symbol: TaNRT2.5-3B
• Gene Name:
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Overexpressing TaNAC2-5A increases grain nitrate concentration and seed vigour by directly binding to the promoter of TaNRT2.5-3B and positively regulating its expression. TaNRT2.5 is expressed in developing grain, particularly the embryo and husk.
• In Xenopus oocyte assays TaNRT2.5 requires a partner protein TaNAR2.1 to give nitrate transport activity, and the transporter locates to the tonoplast in a tobacco leaf transient expression system.
• Overexpression of either TaNAC2-5A or TaNRT2.5-3B increases both grain nitrate concentration and seed vigour, whereas knockdown of TaNRT2.5 had the opposite effect.
• Overexpression of TaNRT2.5-3B increases seed vigour, grain nitrate concentration and yield, whereas RNA interference of TaNRT2.5 has the opposite effects.
