Overexpression of a Poplar RING-H2 Zinc Finger, <i>Ptxerico</i>, Confers Enhanced Drought Tolerance via Reduced Water Loss and Ion Leakage in <i>Populus</i>

Drought stress is one of the major environmental problems in the growth of crops and woody perennials, but it is getting worse due to the global climate crisis. XERICO, a RING (Really Interesting New Gene) zinc-finger E3 ubiquitin ligase, has been shown to be a positive regulator of drought toleranc...
