Abstract excerpt
In response to water-deficit stress, plants alter expression of thousands of genes and as a result, cellular, physiological, and biochemical processes are modified. Understanding the functional role of water-deficit stress-responsive genes is important in order to develop stress-tolerant plants. RNA interference (RNAi) technology is one of the potential reverse genetics tool for assessing the functional...
