Phosphorus (P) flow in agricultural land depends on the P taken off from harvested product, its losses through runoff and fertilizer applied to balance the removed P. Phytic acid (PA), the major storage form of phosphorus (P) in cereal grains is a key anti‐nutrient for human and non‐ruminants leads to eutrophication of waterways. As the natural non‐renewable P reserves are limited, enhancing P use efficiency is needed for field crops. SULTR‐like phosphorus distribution transporter (SPDT) is a novel rice transporter transfer P to the grain. Any alteration in transporter gene reduce grain P with concomitant rise in the leaves. A low PA (3.0 g/kg) rice Khira was identified where a single nucleotide mutation in LOC_Os06g05160 gene encoding SPDT showed low P transportation to grain. An amino acid change was detected as Valine‐330 to Alanine at the 3′ end of fifth exon. Highest expression of SPDT was observed in node I of rice as compared to low PA genotype. The mutation in SPDT could significantly affect P and PA accumulation in the grains with increased mineral bioavailability. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Excessive P application in crop leads to higher production cost as well as rapid depletion of limited rock phosphate. Alteration of P transporter function in the rice lower PA and total P accumulation in the grains with increased mineral bioavailability. The re‐distributed P in the straw can be applied as manure to the rice field. Thus, less P will be removed from the field, result in the decreased requirement for P fertilizer.
