text OsPT8, a high affinity Phospahte (Pi) transporter, is involved in Pi uptake from soil, translocation of Pi from root to shoot and redistribution of Pi in young organs during leaf senescence. Knockdown of OsPT8 causes large decrease in root and shoot biomass and total Pi uptake during low Pi conditions. Overexpression of OsPT8 causesin high Pi in root and shoot leading to Pi toxicity under high Pi supply. OsPT8 is regulated by Osmyb1 transcription factor under Pi starvation condition.
