The WRKY transcription factors are recognized for their pivotal roles in plant development and stress responses, but their involvement in specialized ...

Similarly, promoter-reporter fusion constructs for WRKY transcription factor 8 (WRKY8) and glutathione S-transferase F7 (GSTF7) genes were introduced into plants to observe their expression ...

2020), DREB (Zhang et al., 2020), ICE1 (Tang et al., 2020), WRKY (Zhang et al., 2016), NAC (An et al., 2018), and bZIP (Liu et al., 2019b). Metabolites are the ultimate manifestation of the ...

The largest TF family was MYB, with five DEGs (4 upregulated and 1 downregulated), followed by WRKY with three DEGs (2 upregulated and 1 downregulated), and ERF with two upregulated DEGs. MYB genes ...
