Characterization of the Gh4CL gene family reveals a role of Gh4CL7 in drought tolerance
Abstract Background The function of 4-coumarate-CoA ligases (4CL) under abiotic stresses has been studied in plants, however, limited is known about the 4CL genes in cotton (G. hirsutum L.) and their roles in response to drought stress. Results We performed genome-wide identification of the 4CL gene...
