The phosphate transporter (PHT) family mediates the uptake and translocation of the essential macronutrient phosphorus (P) in plants. In this study, 27 PHT proteins in <i>Sorghum</i> were identified via bioinformatics tools. Phylogenetic analysis of their protein sequences in comparison with those family proteins from <i>Arabidopsis</i> and rice indicated that these proteins could be clustered into five typical subfamilies. There are 12 SbPHT1 members, one SbPHT2, six SbPHT3s, six SbPHT4s, and t ...[more]
