Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Plant WRKY DNA-binding transcription factors are key regulators in certain developmental programs. A number of studies have suggested that WRKY genes may mediate seed germination and postgermination growth. However, it is unclear whether WRKY genes mediate ABA-dependent seed germination and postgermination growth arrest. RESULTS: To determine directly the role of Arabidopsis WRKY2 transcription factor...
