Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides methods and compositions relating to altering NT activity, nitrogen utilization and/or uptake in plants. The invention relates to a method for the production of plants with maintained or increased yield under low or normal nitrogen fertility. The invention provides isolated nitrate transporter (NT) nucleic acids and their encoded proteins. The invention further provides recombinant expression cassettes, host cells, and transgenic plants. Plants transformed with nucleotide sequences encoding the NT enzyme show improved properties, for example, increased yield.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
That which is claimed: 1. A recombinant nucleic acid comprising a nitrate transporter (NT) encoding polynucleotide and a nitrate reductase (NR) encoding polynucleotide; wherein said NT polynucleotide is selected from the group consisting of: (a) a polynucleotide having at least 99% identity to SEQ ID NO: 3, comprising a nucleotide that has been substituted, wherein the nucleotide substitution is one or more of the substitutions shown in FIG. 3 , and wherein the polynucleotide enc…
