Description
Ya-Yi Meng and co-authors mapped the ammonium transporter gene family in sweet potato in a 2023 study. Ammonium is a main nitrogen source for the crop. Transporter genes move it into roots and shoots. The popular Pushu 32 cultivar anchored the field work at two Hainan sites.
Twelve transporter genes were found in the genome. They fell into three subgroups with like structure. Field plots tested four nitrogen levels across two seasons. Gene activity was tied to nitrogen use, root growth, and yield. Two genes stood out as key players. Breeders may use the map to cut fertilizer waste.
