Abstract excerpt
Dehydration responsive element binding protein 1 (DREB1)/C-repeat binding factor (CBF) induces the expression of many stress-inducible genes in Arabidopsis. We have previously reported the identification of three DREB1/ICBF homologs from sweet cherry (Prunus avium). To identify the function of these homologs, one of the genes, CIG-B, was transformed into Arabidopsis. In one of the transgenic plant lines, the...
