Mechanism Study on ZmNRT2.5 Improving Maize Nitrogen Use Efficiency by Coordinating Nitrate Uptake and Allocation (PRJCA043109)

This study focuses on exploring the specific mechanism by which ZmNRT2.5 improves maize nitrogen use efficiency by coordinating nitrate uptake and allocation. By clarifying how ZmNRT2.5 participates in and regulates the absorption of nitrate from the soil by maize roots and its subsequent transport and distribution in various tissues and organs, it is expected to provide a theoretical basis and potential gene resources for improving maize nitrogen use efficiency, reducing nitrogen fertilizer application, and promoting sustainable agricultural development.
