A novel small open reading frame gene, IbEGF, enhances drought tolerance in transgenic sweet potato
Small open reading frames (sORFs) can encode functional polypeptides or act as cis-translational regulators in stress responses in eukaryotes. Their number and potential importance have only recently become clear in plants. In this study, we identified a novel sORF gene in sweet potato, IbEGF, which...
