Genes Acting on Transcriptional Control during Abiotic Stress Responses

الملخص EN

Abiotic stresses are the major cause of yield loss in crops around the world.

Greater genetic gains are possible by combining the classical genetic improvement with advanced molecular biology techniques.

The understanding of mechanisms triggered by plants to meet conditions of stress is of fundamental importance for the elucidation of these processes.

Current genetically modified crops help to mitigate the effects of these stresses, increasing genetic gains in order to supply the agricultural market and the demand for better quality food throughout the world.

To obtain safe genetic modified organisms for planting and consumption, a thorough grasp of the routes and genes that act in response to these stresses is necessary.

This work was developed in order to collect important information about essential TF gene families for transcriptional control under abiotic stress responses.
