Cold‐inducible promoter‐driven knockdown of Brachypodium antifreeze proteins confers freezing and phytopathogen susceptibility
Abstract The model forage crop, Brachypodium distachyon, has a cluster of ice recrystallization inhibition (BdIRI) genes, which encode antifreeze proteins that function by adsorbing to ice crystals and inhibiting their growth. The genes were targeted for knockdown using a cold‐induced promoter from...
