Overexpression of the Arabidopsis 14-3-3 protein GF14 lambda in cotton leads to a "stay-green" phenotype and improves stress tolerance under moderate drought conditions.

Abstract excerpt

The Arabidopsis gene GF14 lambda that encodes a 14-3-3 protein was introduced into cotton plants to explore the physiological roles that GF14 lambda might play in plants. The expression level of GF14 lambda under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter varied in transgenic cotton plants, and lines that expressed GF14 lambda demonstrated a "stay-green" phenotype and improved water-stress...
