CCCH-Type Zinc Finger Family in Maize: Genome-Wide Identification, Classification and Expression Profiling under Abscisic Acid and Drought Treatments
Xiaojian Peng,Yang Zhao,Cao Jiangang,Wei Zhang,Haiyang Jiang,Xiaoyu Li,Qing Ma,Suwen Zhu,Beijiu Cheng +8 more
TL;DR: The results presented in this study provide basic information on maize CCCH proteins and form the foundation for future functional studies of these proteins, especially for those members of which may play important roles in response to abiotic stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Novel Maize Homeodomain–Leucine Zipper (HD-Zip) I Gene, Zmhdz10, Positively Regulates Drought and Salt Tolerance in Both Rice and Arabidopsis
Yang Zhao,Qing Ma,Xiaolei Jin,Xiaojian Peng,Jinyang Liu,Lin Deng,Hanwei Yan,Lei Sheng,Haiyang Jiang,Beijiu Cheng +9 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that Zmhdz10 functions as a transcriptional regulator that can positively regulate drought and salt tolerance in plants through an ABA-dependent signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic analysis of sequences and expression patterns of drought-responsive members of the HD-Zip gene family in maize.
Yang Zhao,Yuqiong Zhou,Haiyang Jiang,Xiaoyu Li,Defang Gan,Xiaojian Peng,Suwen Zhu,Beijiu Cheng +7 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the maize HD-Zip gene family is revealed and the first step towards the selection of Zmhdz genes for cloning and functional research to uncover their roles in maize growth and development is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overexpression of a maize WRKY58 gene enhances drought and salt tolerance in transgenic rice
Ronghao Cai,Yang Zhao,Yufu Wang,Yongxiang Lin,Xiaojian Peng,Qian Li,Yuwei Chang,Haiyang Jiang,Yan Xiang,Beijiu Cheng +9 more
TL;DR: Investigation showed that ZmWRKY58 overexpressing transgenic plants had higher survival rates and relative water contents, but lower malonaldehyde contents and relative electrical leakage compared with wild-type plants, following drought and salt stress treatments, suggesting that overexpression of Zm WRKY58 leads to enhanced tolerance to drought and Salt stresses in transgenic rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole-genome survey and characterization of MADS-box gene family in maize and sorghum
TL;DR: A survey of maize and sorghum EST sequences indicated that MADs-box genes exhibit a various expression pattern, suggesting diverse and novel functions of MADS-box gene families in the two plants.
