Overexpression of a stress-responsive NAC transcription factor gene ONAC022 improves drought and salt tolerance in rice

The NAC transcription factors play critical roles in regulating stress responses in plants. However, the functions for many of the NAC family members in rice are yet to be identified. In the present study, a novel stress-responsive rice NAC gene, ONAC022, was identified. Expression of ONAC022 was in...
