Plant Cell Rep. 2022 May;41(5):1329-1332. doi: 10.1007/s00299-022-02845-2. Epub 2022 Feb 26.

Abstract

We highlight the newly emerged roles of plant SPX-PHR proteins beyond phosphate starvation responses in controlling arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization success in roots.

Keywords: AM colonization PHR1 SPX; Mycorrhizal symbiosis; P1BS; Phosphate starvation response.
