Abstract Key message R2R3 MYB transcription factor GhMYB18 is involved in the defense
response to cotton aphid by participating in the synthesis of salicylic acid and flavonoids …

Myelocytomatosis (MYC) transcription factors (TFs) in plants are well-known regulators of
plant defense against herbivores. However, the role and mechanism of MYC TFs in cotton …

The GhMYB9 encodes a R2R3 MYB transcription factor in the upland cotton (Gossypium
hirsutum L.) genome. Our studies show that GhMYB9 predominantly expressed in flowers …

Drought and Verticillium wilt disease are two main factors that limit cotton production, which
necessitates the identification of key molecular switch to simultaneously improve cotton …

Accumulating evidence indicates that plant MYB transcription factors participate in defense
against pathogen attack, but their regulatory targets and related signaling processes remain …

Key message GhMYB4 acts as a negative regulator in lignin biosynthesis, which results in
alteration of cell wall integrity and activation of cotton defense response. Abstract Verticillium …

The MYB transcription factor (TF) family is among the largest TF families and plays an
important role in plant growth and stress response. However, few studies have investigated …

Improving plant resistance to Verticillium wilt (VW), which causes massive losses in
Gossypium hirsutum, is a global challenge. Crop needs to efficiently allocate their limited …

In plants, MYB transcription factors play diverse roles in growth, development, and response
to abiotic and biotic stresses. However, the signaling processes of these transcription factors …

MYB transcription factors play important roles during abiotic stress responses in plants.
However, little is known about the accurate systematic analysis of MYB genes in the four …
