Abstract excerpt
Cold stress adversely affects crop growth and development. WRKY transcription factors play the critical role in regulating abiotic stress response and balancing plant growth and cold stress defense. However, the roles of WRKY in the trade-off between root growth and cold stress response are still rarely known in radish. Herein, RsWRKY49 was specifically expressed in the radish root and the expression was highly...
