Model of expression patterns and induced TaNRT2 genes in wheat under nitrogen deficiency condition. The induced TaNRT2 genes were summarized in the model which based on the transcript data and the heatmap of TaNRT2 genes in different developmental stage. Under nitrate deficiency condition, most TaNRT2 genes are induced in root, these high-affinity nitrate transporters uptake NO3− by trans-membrane. Then the nitrate were distributed in leaves and seeds to assimilation. The red arrows indicate nitrate uptake and transport. The green ellipse on the membrane characterizes TaNRT2 proteins and the little yellow ellipses response nitrate molecules
