Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Fourteen EPF family members were identified in potato.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 is significantly induced by drought stress in potato.
- Mechanism StEPF4 may act as a negative regulator of the drought response in potato.
- Observation Multiple cis-regulatory elements associated with drought regulation were identified in the StEPF promoter regions.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 is greatly induced by dehydration treatment in potato.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 knockdown decreased transpiration rate in potato.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 knockdown lines maintained a higher photosynthetic rate than the control.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 knockdown lines lowered leaf water loss rate compared with the control.
- Intervention effect StEPF4 knockdown lines showed increased drought resistance compared with the control.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that StEPF4 regulates drought resistance in potato by reducing stomatal density.
