The circadian clock in plants is crucial for regulating stress responses, including cold tolerance. Cold induces the expression of C-REPEAT BINDING FACTOR (CBF) transcription factors, which activate COLD-REGULATED (COR) genes to mitigate cold-induced damage. Previously, we identified that HIGH EXPRESSION OF OSMOTICALLY RESPONSIVE GENE15 (HOS15)-HISTONE DEACETYLASE 2C (HD2C) complex regulates tolerance by modulating histone deacetylation on COR genes. Our research reports oscillator GIGNATEA...
Abstract Herbicides play a crucial role in maintaining crop productivity by reducing competition between weeds and crops. Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)-inhibiting herbicides trigger the photooxidative damage that destroys cell membranes. Tiafenacil is recently developed pyrimidinedione-type PPO-inhibiting herbicide has low IC 50 values plants less toxic humans compared to other PPO inhibitors. Previous reports confirmed mutations Arabidopsis circadian clock-controlled gene GIGANTEA ( GI )...
