DOF Transcription Factors: Regulatory Hubs Coordinating Plant Growth, Development and Stress Tolerance.
Under global climate warming, plants evolve unique growth and developmental strategies to cope with frequent abiotic stresses. The plant-specific DNA-BINDING WITH ONE FINGER (DOF) transcription factors (TFs) originated in green algae and are phylogenetically divided into four subfamilies (A, B, C, D), governing plant g...
