Characterization of a HKT-type transporter in rice as a general alkali cation transporter

We report the characterization of rice OsHKT1 (Oryza sativa ssp. indica) homologous to the wheat K+/Na+‐symporter HKT1. Expression of OsHKT1 in the yeast strain CY162 defective in K+‐uptake restored growth at mM and µM concentrations of K+ and mediated hypersensitivity to Na+. When expressed in Xeno...
