Phosphorus (P) is a nonrenewable resource, which is one of the major challenges for sustainable agriculture. Although phosphite (Phi) can be absorbed by the plant cells through the Pi transporters, it cannot be metabolized by plant and unable to use as P fertilizers for crops. However, transgenic plants that overexpressed phosphite dehydrogenase (PtxD) from bacteria can utilize phosphite as the sole P source. In this study, we aimed to improve the catalytic efficiency of PtxD from <i>Ralstonia</ ...[more]
