Constitutive expression of REL1 confers the rice response to drought stress and abscisic acid
Abstract Leaf rolling is one of the most significant symptoms of drought stress in plant.Previously, we identified a dominant negative mutant, termed rolled and erect 1 (hereafter referred to rel1-D), regulating leaf rolling and erectness in rice.However, the role of REL1 in drought response is still poorly understood.Here, our results indicated th
