A nodule‐localized phosphate transporter GmPT7 plays an important role in enhancing symbiotic N2 fixation and yield in soybean

What is it about?

Efficient N2 fixation requires phosphorus supply to the bacteroids in soybean. We show for the first time that GmPT7, a nodule-localized phosphorus transporter, is involved in direct Pi uptake by the nodules from the rhizosphere and further Pi translocation into the fixation zone.
