Figure 1

Functional complementation of fps1 for B transport by OsPIP1;3 and OsPIP2;6 in S. cerevisiae HD9 strain (∆fps1acr3ycf1).

Expression of full length (a) and truncated version (b) of OsPIP1;3 and OsPIP2;6 in HD9 yeast strain. The transformants were grown in liquid medium and 10-fold serial dilutions of the culture were spotted on plates with boric acid. Growth was recorded after 3–4 days at 30 °C. (c) Boron accumulation in yeast cells expressing pYES3 empty vector, t-OsPIP1;3 and t-OsPIP2;6. Data are means ± S.D (n = 3), *P < 0.05.
