MEDIATOR16 orchestrates local and systemic responses to phosphate scarcity in Arabidopsis roots

What is it about?

Phosphate is an essential nutrient for plants and their application as chemical fertilizer is required for grain and biomass production. We show that Mediator complex subunit MED16 plays a key role in phosphate scarcity by interacting with the STOP1-ALMT1 module to orchestrate local and systemic responses in Arabidopsis roots.
