Article Abstract
SPX () family genes play a pivotal role in phosphorus signaling, phosphorus uptake, and phosphorus translocation in plants. However, to date, the SPX family genes have not been systematically investigated in cotton. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide analysis and identified 44 SPX family genes in , classifying them into four subfamilies (SPX, SPX-MFS, SPX-EXS, and SPX-RING) based on conserved domains. An expression analysis revealed that the majority of SPX family genes were highly expressed in the root and stem. We identified hormone response, stress response, low-temperature response, and PHR1 binding sequence (P1BS) -elements in the promoters of the SPX genes. Additionally, the expression of , , and was significantly altered under phosphorus-deficient conditions and may be involved in the regulation of Pi response. A Y2H assay suggested that GhSPX1-1 interacts with GhPHR1A and GhSPX1-2 interacts with GhPHL1A. Our findings provide a basis for further cloning and functional verification of genes related to the regulatory network of low phosphorus tolerance in cotton.

XPR1 is emerging as the only known inorganic phosphate (Pi) exporter in humans, critical for Pi homeostasis, with its activity stimulated by inositol pyrophosphate InsP8 and regulated by neuronal scaffold protein KIDINS220. Our structural studies reveal that InsP8 specifically activates XPR1 in a stepwise manner, involving profound SYG1/PHO/XPR1 (SPX) domain movements. Each XPR1 subunit functions with four gating states, in which Pi permeates a constriction site via a "knock-kiss-kick" process.

This article methodically reveals how, in woody plants (poplar), the interaction between N and P coordinates root structure and nutrient absorption through a complex hormone signaling network. This study bridges a significant gap in our knowledge of nutrient interaction networks. The results demonstrate that NO significantly enhances the gene expression and enzymatic activity of organic acid synthases (MDH, PEPC) and APs.

SPX domain-containing proteins are important for phosphate (Pi) signaling and homeostasis in various eukaryotes. Genomic and transcriptomic analyses of the oleaginous microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica identified four genes encoding SPX family members with distinct domain architectures: SPX (NoSPX1), SPX-VTC (NoSPX2), SPX-EXS (NoSPX3), and SPX-MFS (NoSPX4). These NoSPX genes responded differentially to Pi deprivation, with NoSPX1 and NoSPX2 expression being significantly up-regulated.

The phosphate starvation response (PHR) transcription factor family play central regulatory roles in nutrient signaling, but its relationship with other abiotic stress remains elusive. In the woody plant , we characterized 12 EgPHRs, which were phylogenetically divided into three groups, with group I exhibiting conserved structural features (e.g.
