Overexpression of tomato WHIRLY protein enhances tolerance to drought stress and resistance to Pseudomonas solanacearum in transgenic tobacco

WHIRLY transcription factors play critical roles in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, but their other biological functions remain unclear. In this study, SlWHY2, a member of the WHIRLY family, was isolated from Solanum lycopersicum. The role of SlWHY2 was studied using transgenic tobacco pla...
