Over-Expression of ERF38 Gene Enhances Salt and Osmotic Tolerance in Transgenic Poplar

Ethylene response factor (ERF) gene family plays an important role in abiotic stress responses. In this study, we isolated a salt-inducible ERF gene, ERF38 (Potri.006G138900.1), from the 84K poplar (Populus alba × Populus glandulosa) and investigated its functions in salt and osmotic tolerance. We i...
