Knockdown of Cytochrome P450 Genes Gh_D07G1197 and Gh_A13G2057 on Chromosomes D07 and A13 Reveals Their Putative Role in Enhancing Drought and Salt Stress Tolerance in Gossypium Hirsutum
Magwanga, Richard Odongo; Lu, Pu; Kirungu, Joy Nyangasi; Dong, Qi; Cai, Xiaoyan; Zhou, Zhongli; Wang, Xingxing; Hou, Yuqing; Xu, Yanchao; Peng, Renhai; Agong, Stephen Gaya; Wang, Kunbo; Fang, Liu (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2019-03)We identified 672, 374, and 379 CYPs proteins encoded by the CYPs genes in Gossypium hirsutum, Gossypium raimondii, and Gossypium arboreum, respectively. The genes were found to be distributed in all 26 chromosomes of the ... -
