- Researchers discovered a new pathway that regulates nitrate absorption in plants.
- They investigated a miR444 target gene called MADS27, a transcription factor that has previously received little attention.
- The micro-RNA, miR444, activates the Gene MADS27.
- That regulates nitrate absorption, root development, and stress tolerance.
- Thus provides a way to control these plant properties.
- The gene MADS27 appears to be an excellent candidate for modification in order to improve nitrogen use efficiency.
