GLUTAMATE RECEPTORS IN NUTRIENT SENSING, METABOLISM, GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT

摘要

The present invention relates to methods that may be used to improve or modify nutrient sensing, absorption, metabolism, root growth, stomatal conductance, N use efficiency, C and N metabolism, plant biomass production and seed yield. More specifically, this invention is related to the glutamate receptors (GLRs) and their role(s) in nutrient sensing, metabolism, regulation of growth, development, and yield.
