Overexpression of an NF-YC2 gene confers alkali tolerance to transgenic alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Overexpression of an NF-YC2 gene confers alkali tolerance to transgenic alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Alkaline stress severely limits plant growth and yield worldwide. NF-YC transcription factors (TFs) respond to abiotic stress by activating gene expression. However, the biological function of NF-YC TFs in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is not clear. In our study, an NF-YC2 gene was identified and tra...
