OsWRKY74, a WRKY transcription factor, modulates tolerance to phosphate starvation in rice

The WRKY transcription factor family in rice is functionally diverse. We demonstrate that WRKY74 overexpression enhances growth, increases tiller number, grain weight and phosphorus concentration under phosphate-deprived conditions in rice.
