TL;DR: It is reported that barley genotypes ‘Dicktoo’ and ‘Nure’ carrying a vrn-H1 winter allele at VRN-H2 harbor increased copy numbers of CBF coding sequences relative to Vrn- H1 spring allele genotypes’ more occurs in winter wheats than in spring wheats.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that differences in CRT/DRE copy numbers in CAS30/CAS31 upstream regions combined with differences in gene copy numbers may be a factor in determining differences in low-temperature tolerance between M. truncatula and M. falcata.

TL;DR: Solanum species that are closely-allied to cultivated tomato essentially share this structural organization, but the locus is in a dynamic state of flux, and DNA sequence motifs shared between the SolanumCBF1 and CBF4 upstream regions were identified, portions of which were also present in the Arabidopsis CBF1-3 upstream regions.

TL;DR: Data indicate that Hv-CBF2A activates target genes at warm temperatures and that transcript accumulation for some of these targets is greatly enhanced by cold temperatures.

TL;DR: Analysis of hexaploid wheat chromosome 5 substitution lines indicates that Cbf14 copy numbers in the introgressions are stable in the different backgrounds, and suggest that higher copy number states existed in the diploid wild ancestors prior to the polyploidization events and that the loss of CBF14 copies occurred in the cultivated germplasm.
