Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a useful tool for functional characterization of genes in plants. Unfortunately, the efficiency of infection by Tobacco rattle virus (TRV) is relatively low for some non-Solanaceae plants, which are economically important, such as rose (Rosa sp.). Here, to

WRKY transcription factor genes (TFs) play important roles in response to various abiotic stresses. However, the roles of the chrysanthemum WRKY genes in abiotic stress response remain obscure. In this study, we functionally characterized a novel WRKY gene, DgWRKY3, from chrysanthemum (Dendranthema

CONCLUSIONS A NAC -like gene named DlNAC1 was identified in chrysanthemum and characterized; it may be involved in regulation of response to abiotic stressors, especially in tolerance to drought and salinity. NAC transcription factors in plants play crucial roles in tolerance to abiotic stressors,

The genetic similarity between pTiBo542 and pTiCNI5, which are harbored, respectively by the supervirulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain A281 and by the highly tumorigenic wild-type strain CNI5 isolated from chrysanthemum was investigated by Southern hybridization. pTiCNI5 and pTiBo542 exhibited
