AbstractThe Arabidopsis genome contains ∼200 genes that encode proteins with
similarity to the nucleotide binding site and other domains characteristic of
plant resistance proteins. Through a reiterative process of sequence analysis
and reannotation, we identified 149 NBS-LRR–encoding genes in the Arabidopsis
(ecotype Columbia) genomic sequence. Fifty-six of these genes were corrected
from earlier... hiện toàn bộ
Abstract Many plants, including Arabidopsis, increase in freezing tolerance in
response to low, nonfreezing temperatures, a phenomenon known as cold
acclimation. Previous studies established that cold acclimation involves rapid
expression of the CBF transcriptional activators (also known as DREB1 proteins)
in response to low temperature followed by induction of the CBF regulon
(CBF-targeted genes)... hiện toàn bộ
