MtMATE67-delivered citrate is essential for symbiotic nitrogen fixation

 December 27, 2017 |  News |  

In an effort led by Dr. Michael Udvardi’s team, we have contributed to the characterization of Medicago truncatula MtMATE67. This protein is a citrate transporter required by the nodule cells for iron uptake from the apoplast and its delivery into the symbiosome. This work has been published in Plant Physiology.
