A Novel High-Affinity Potassium Transporter <i>IbHKT-like</i> Gene Enhances Low–Potassium Tolerance in Transgenic Roots of Sweet Potato (<i>Ipomoea batatas</i> (L.) Lam.)

A Novel High-Affinity Potassium Transporter <i>IbHKT-like</i> Gene Enhances Low–Potassium Tolerance in Transgenic Roots of Sweet Potato (<i>Ipomoea batatas</i> (L.) Lam.)

The high-affinity potassium transporters (HKT) mediate K<sup>+</sup>-Na<sup>+</sup> homeostasis in plants. However, the function of enhancing low-potassium tolerance in sweet potato [<i>Ipomoea batatas</i> (L.) Lam.] remains unrevealed. In this study, a novel HKT...
