CRISPR/Cas9 mediated gene-editing of GmHdz4 transcription factor enhances drought tolerance in soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.)
The HD-Zip transcription factors play a crucial role in plant development, secondary metabolism, and abiotic stress responses, but little is known about HD-Zip I genes in soybean. Here, a homeodomain-leucine zipper gene designated GmHdz4 was isolated. Chimeric soybean plants, GmHdz4 overexpressing (...
