agriculture | a 20fold increase in total root phytase activity in transgenic lines expressing Aspergillus niger phytase results in improved phosphorus nutrition, such that the growth and phosphorus content of the plants is equivalent to control plants supplied with inorganic phosphate. Use of gene technology to improve the ability of plants to utilize accumulated forms of soil organic phosphorus | Aspergillus niger |

The enzyme may be a 3-phytase (EC 3.1.3.8), or a 4-phytase (synonym 6-phytase, EC 3.1.3.26). The product of the hydrolysis of myo-inositol hexakisphosphate to 1D-myo-inositol 1,2,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate or alternatively 1D-myo-inositol 1,2,3,5,6-pentakisphosphate has not been identified. Growth and phosphorus nutrition of the plants supplied with phytate is improved significantly when the phytase gene from Aspergillus niger is introduced.
