The cotton WRKY transcription factor GhWRKY70 negatively regulates the defense response against Verticillium dahliae

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2019
WRKY transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in the regulation of biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the functions of most WRKY TFs in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) are still unknown. In this study, we functionally identified a group III

ABI4 Mediates Antagonistic Effects of Abscisic Acid and Gibberellins at Transcript and Protein Levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GA) are plant hormones which antagonistically mediate numerous physiological processes, and their optimal balance is essential for normal plant development.

Overexpression of a Prefoldin β subunit gene reduces biomass recalcitrance in the bioenergy crop Populus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Prefoldin (PFD) is a group II chaperonin that is ubiquitously present in the eukaryotic kingdom. Six subunits (PFD1-6) form a jellyfish-like heterohexameric PFD complex and function in protein folding and cytoskeleton organization.

Transcriptome-wide identification of salt-responsive members of the WRKY gene family in Gossypium aridum. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
WRKY transcription factors are plant-specific, zinc finger-type transcription factors. The WRKY superfamily is involved in abiotic stress responses in many crops including cotton, a major fiber crop that is widely cultivated and consumed throughout the ...

Arabidopsis defense against Botrytis cinerea : chronology and regulation deciphered by high-resolution temporal transcriptomic analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Transcriptional reprogramming forms a major part of a plant’s response to pathogen infection. Many individual components and pathways operating during plant defense have been identified, but our knowledge of how these different components interact is ...

Phylogenetic and comparative gene expression analysis of barley (Hordeum vulgare) WRKY transcription factor family reveals putatively retained functions between monocots and dicots

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background WRKY proteins belong to the WRKY-GCM1 superfamily of zinc finger transcription factors that have been subject to a large plant-specific diversification.

Sequencing and analysis of the gene-rich space of cowpea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp., is one of the most important food and forage legumes in the semi-arid tropics because of its drought tolerance and ability to grow on poor quality soils.

The nuclear immune receptor RPS4 is required for RRS1SLH1-dependent constitutive defense activation in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Plant nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) disease resistance (R) proteins recognize specific ‘‘avirulent’’ pathogen effectors and activate immune responses.

Association of transcription factor WRKY56 gene from Populus simonii × P. nigra with salt tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
The WRKY transcription factor family is one of the largest groups of transcription factor in plants, playing important roles in growth, development, and biotic and abiotic stress responses. Many WRKY genes have been cloned from a variety of plant species

Identification of transcriptional regulatory nodes in soybean defense networks using transient co-transactivation assays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plant responses to major environmental stressors, such as insect feeding, not only occur via the functions of defense genes but also involve a series of regulatory factors.
