A special member of the rice SRO family, OsSRO1c, mediates responses to multiple abiotic stresses through interaction with various transcription factors
SIMILAR TO RCD ONE (SRO) is a plant-specific gene family involved in development and abiotic stress responses. SRO proteins are characterized by containing poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase catalytic (PARP) and C-t...

Improvement of Stress Tolerance in Crops by Genetic Manipulation of ABA Metabolism, Signaling, and Regulation
Abiotic stresses such as extremes in water, temperature, and salinity are major limiting factors for the productivity of most crops. The plant response and adaptation to these stresses are controlled by numero...

Carotenoid deficiency impairs ABA and IAA biosynthesis and differentially affects drought and cold tolerance in rice
Plant responses to abiotic stresses are coordinated by arrays of growth and developmental programs. Phytohormones such as abscisic acid (ABA) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) play critical roles in developmental...

Genome-wide profiling of histone H3K4-tri-methylation and gene expression in rice under drought stress
Histone modifications affect gene expression level. Several studies have shown that they may play key roles in regulating gene expression in plants under abiotic stress, but genome-wide surveys of such stress-...

Characterization of an inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate 5/6-kinase gene that is essential for drought and salt stress responses in rice
Drought and salt stresses are major limiting factors for crop production. To identify critical genes for stress resistance in rice (Oryza sativa L.), we screened T-DNA mutants and identified a drought- and salt-h...

Identification and expression profiling analysis of TIFY family genes involved in stress and phytohormone responses in rice
The TIFY family is a novel plant-specific gene family involved in the regulation of diverse plant-specific biologic processes, such as development and responses to phytohormones, in Arabidopsis. However, there is...

Systematic identification of X1-homologous genes reveals a family involved in stress responses in rice
X1-homologous genes (XHS) encode plant-specific proteins containing three major domains (XH, XS, zf-XS), but their functions are largely unknown. We report the systematic identification a...

Characterization of Glossy1-homologous genes in rice involved in leaf wax accumulation and drought resistance
The outermost surfaces of plants are covered with an epicuticular wax layer that provides a primary waterproof barrier and protection against different environmental stresses. Glossy 1 (GL1) is one of the reporte...

Characterization of OsIAA1 gene, a member of rice Aux/IAA family involved in auxin and brassinosteroid hormone responses and plant morphogenesis
Aux/IAA and auxin response factor (ARF) are two important families that have been well recognized for their roles in auxin-mediated responses. Aux/IAA proteins are short-lived transcriptional regulators that m...

Characterization of transcription factor gene SNAC2 conferring cold and salt tolerance in rice
Plants respond to adverse environment by initiating a series of signaling processes including activation of transcription factors that can regulate expression of arrays of genes for stress response and adaptat...

A genome-wide survey of HD-Zip genes in rice and analysis of drought-responsive family members
The homeodomain leucine zipper (HD-Zip) genes encode transcription factors that have diverse functions in plant development and have often been implicated in stress adaptation. The HD-Zip genes are the most ab...

Open AccessGlobal genome expression analysis of rice in response to drought and high-salinity stresses in shoot, flag leaf, and panicle
To elucidate genome-level responses to drought and high-salinity stress in rice, a 70mer oligomer microarray covering 36,926 unique genes or gene models was used to profile genome expression changes in rice sh...
