Ethylene signaling plays important roles in multiple aspects of plant growth and
development. Its functions in abiotic stress responses remain largely unknown. Here, we …

Verticillium wilt, caused by the notorious fungal pathogen Verticillium dahliae, is one of the
main limiting factors for cotton production. Due to the stable dormant structure microsclerotia …

Ethylene response factor 1 (ERF1) is a transcriptional factor from Arabidopsis thaliana that
regulates plant resistance to the necrotrophic fungi Botrytis cinerea and Plectosphaerella …

Ethylene gas is a major plant hormone that influences diverse processes in plant growth,
development and stress responses throughout the plant life cycle. Responses to ethylene …

Verticillium wilt of cotton is a vascular disease mainly caused by the soil‐born filamentous
fungus Verticillium dahliae. To study the mechanisms associated with defense responses in …

Verticillium dahliae is a kind of pathogenic fungus that brings about wilt disease and great
losses in cotton. The molecular mechanism of the effectors in V. dahliae regulating cotton …

Background Verticillium wilt of cotton is a serious soil-borne disease that causes a
substantial reduction in cotton yields. A previous study showed that the endophytic fungus …

During the past decade, molecular genetic studies on the reference plant Arabidopsis have
established a largely linear signal transduction pathway for the response to ethylene gas …

Five ethylene-insensitive loci (wei1–wei5) were identified by using a low-dose screen for
“weak” ethylene-insensitive mutants. wei1, wei2, and wei3 seedlings showed hormone …

Cotton is an important cash crop worldwide, and is a significant source of fiber, feed,
foodstuff, oil and biofuel products. Considerable effort has been expended to increase …
