SgPAP7 expression levels significantly positively correlated with both internal and root-associated APase activities across 20 stylo genotypes under low-Pi conditions
Recombinant SgPAP7 exhibited high catalytic activity toward ADP and PEP in vitro
SgPAP7 overexpression in Arabidopsis significantly enhanced utilization of exogenous organic phosphorus
