Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Me.15G118300
• Gene Symbol: MeWRKY20
• Gene Name:
• Genome:
• Species: Manihot esculenta

Functional Descriptions:

• The chaperone MeHSP90 recruits MeWRKY20 and MeCatalase1 to regulate drought stress resistance in cassava.
• The expression data suggested that MeHSP90.9, MeWRKY20 and MeCatalase1 may be involved in the drought stress response in cassava.
• The links between the chaperones MeHSP90, MeWRKY20 and MeCatalase1 in drought stress response in cassava are revealed, highlighting the direct regulation of ABA and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
• These data indicated that gene silencing of MeHSP90.9, MeWRKY20 or MeCatalase1 leads to enhanced drought sensitivity in cassava.
