Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation GhBZR3 was identified as a cotton BZR transcription factor.
- Intervention effect GhBZR3 overexpression shortened root hairs in Arabidopsis.
- Intervention effect GhBZR3 overexpression shortened hypocotyls and their cells in Arabidopsis.
- Observation Fatty acid metabolism and degradation were enriched pathways in GhBZR3-silenced cotton.
- Intervention effect Silencing GhBZR3 increased cotton fiber length.
- Intervention effect GhBZR3 silencing increased very-long-chain fatty acid content versus wild type.
- Observation The GhKCS13 promoter contains two GhBZR3 binding sites.
- Mechanism GhBZR3 binds the GhKCS13 promoter and suppresses expression.
- Mechanism GhBZR3 reduces cotton fiber development through reduced VLCFA biosynthesis.
