Overexpressing <i>OsPYL/RCAR7</i> Improves Drought Tolerance of Maize Seedlings by Reducing Stomatal Conductance

Overexpressing <i>OsPYL/RCAR7</i> Improves Drought Tolerance of Maize Seedlings by Reducing Stomatal Conductance

Drought stress is a serious abiotic factor limiting the quality and yield of maize (<i>Zea mays</i>). To produce maize plants with enhanced drought tolerance, we generated transgenic maize plants overexpressing <i>OsPYL/RCAR7</i>, encoding an abscisic acid receptor. We crosse...
