Regulation of NRT1 and NRT2 Gene Families of Arabidopsis thaliana: Responses to Nitrate Provision

Abstract

Four low-affinity (NRT1), and seven high-affinity (NRT2) nitrate transporter gene homologues have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. We investigated the transcript abundances of all eleven genes in shoot and root tissues in response to the provision of 1 mM NO(3)(-), using relative quantitative RT-PCR. Based upon this criterion, genes were classified as nitrate-inducible, nitrate-repressible, or nitrate-constitutive. AtNRT1.1, 2.1, and 2.2 were strongly induced by NO(3)(-), peaking at 3-12 h and subsequently declining. By contrast AtNRT2.4 showed only modest induction both in shoots and roots. Expression of AtNRT2.5, one of the nitrate-repressible genes, was strongly suppressed by nitrate provision in both roots and shoots. The last group, characterized by a constitutive expression pattern, included AtNRT1.2, 1.4, 2.3, 2.6, and 2.7. Correlation coefficients between (13)NO(3)(-) influx from 100 micro M and 5 mM [NO(3)(-)], suggest that high- and low-affinity transport systems are mediated primarily by AtNRT2.1 and AtNRT1.1, respectively. Functional roles for the other members of these families remain uncertain.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
