Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect NaCl stress (400 mM) significantly induced SlGSTU43 expression in tomato roots.
- Intervention effect Overexpressing SlGSTU43 enhanced reactive oxygen species scavenging in tomato leaves and roots under NaCl stress.
- Intervention effect SlGSTU43 knock-out mutants showed the opposite (lower) reactive oxygen species scavenging performance under NaCl stress.
- Intervention effect Overexpressing SlGSTU43 affected the expression of genes related to lignin biosynthesis in tomato (RNA sequencing).
- Mechanism SlGSTU43 regulates tomato lignin content through its interaction with SlCOMT2.
- Observation SlMYB71 and SlWRKY8 interact with each other.
- Mechanism SlMYB71 and SlWRKY8 directly bind the SlGSTU43 promoter and transcriptionally activate its expression, separately or in combination.
- Intervention effect Silencing SlMYB71 and SlWRKY8 made tomato plants sensitive to NaCl stress.
- Intervention effect Silencing SlMYB71 and SlWRKY8 decreased GST activities in tomato.
- Intervention effect Silencing SlMYB71 and SlWRKY8 decreased lignin contents in tomato.
- Intervention effect SlGSTU43 enhances salt stress tolerance in tomato.
