Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: CaHDZ12
• Gene Name: Homeodomain-Leucine Zipper (HD-Zip) I Transcription Factor12
• Genome:
• Species: Cicer arietinum

Functional Descriptions:

• Chickpea WRKY70 Regulates the Expression of a Homeodomain-Leucine Zipper (HD-Zip) I Transcription Factor CaHDZ12, which Confers Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Transgenic Tobacco and Chickpea.
• Transgenic tobacco lines over-expressing CaHDZ12 exhibited improved tolerance to osmotic stresses and increased sensitivity to abscisic acid (ABA).
• Silencing of CaHDZ12 in chickpea resulted in increased sensitivity to salt and drought stresses.
• Epigenetic modifications underlying histone acetylation at the CaHDZ12 promoter region play a significant role in stress-induced activation of this gene.
