Article Synopsis
- Calcium ions (Ca) play a critical role in plant signaling, especially in response to nitrogen/nitrate availability.
- Short-term calcium supply can enhance plant growth and nutrient uptake during nitrate deficiency, whereas long-term calcium supply may not yield benefits.
- The study focused on Calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins in bread wheat, revealing that their expression is influenced by nitrate levels and stress conditions, particularly highlighting the role of CBL6 in managing nitrogen responses.
In recent years, the development of RNA-guided genome editing (CRISPR-Cas9 technology) has revolutionized plant genome editing. Under nutrient deficiency conditions, different transcription factors and regulatory gene networks work together to maintain nutrient homeostasis. Improvement in the use efficiency of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) is essential to ensure sustainable yield with enhanced quality and tolerance to stresses.
