Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Three WCS19-related protein groups were identified in cereals.
- Observation These cereal proteins share a predicted chloroplast or mitochondrial sorting signal and a C-terminal sequence potentially involved in oligomerization.
- Observation Evidence supported WCS19 localization within wheat chloroplast stroma.
- Observation Evidence supported WCS19 localization within rye chloroplast stroma.
- Association Chloroplastic LEA3-L2 protein accumulation correlated with rye cultivar capacity to develop freezing tolerance.
- Intervention effect Wcs19-transformed Arabidopsis had significantly increased freezing tolerance only following cold acclimation.
