Nature variations of OsNLP4 responsible for nitrogen use efficiency divergence in the two rice subspecies

Abstract Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), a critical determinant of crop productivity and agricultural sustainability, varies significantly between indica and japonica subspecies. Here, we identify three coding-region SNPs in OsNLP4 underlying this divergence. These SNPs enhance the binding affinity o...
