Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: Pu-miR172d
• Gene Name:
• Genome:
• Species: Populus ussuriensis

Functional Descriptions:

• Pu-miR172d regulates stomatal density and water-use efficiency via targeting PuGTL1 in poplar.
• Characterize Pu-miR172d, which acts as a negative regulator of stomatal density by directly repressing the expression of PuGTL1 in Populus ussuriensis.
• Overexpression of Pu-miR172d significantly decreased stomatal density, resulting in increases in water use efficiency (WUE) and drought tolerance by reducing net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration.
• RNA-seq analysis of mature leaves indicated that overexpression of Pu-miR172d decreased the expression of many genes related to photosynthesis.
• Our findings show that the Pu-miR172d/PuGTL1/PuSDD1 module plays an important role in stomatal differentiation, and hence it is a potential target for engineering improved drought tolerance in poplar.
