Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: ZxABCG11
• Gene Name:
• Genome:
• Species: Zygophyllum xanthoxylum

Functional Descriptions:

• Overexpression of ZxABCG11 alters the phenotype and cuticle ultrastructure of leaves in alfalfa.
• Overexpression of ZxABCG11 enhances the tolerance of transgenic alfalfa to drought and heat.
• Transgenic alfalfa overexpressing ZxABCG11 showed higher water use efficiency (WUE) and stronger photosynthesis capacity under drought or heat conditions.
• Overexpression of ZxABCG11 increased cuticular wax deposition, reducing cuticle permeability.
• Transgenic alfalfa overexpressing ZxABCG11 showed higher biomass yields under field conditions of hot, arid regions.
• Overexpression of ZxABCG11 resulted in upregulation of wax biosynthesis and transport related genes.
• Overexpression of ZxABCG11 confers enhanced drought and heat tolerance in alfalfa by increasing accumulation of cuticular wax.
• ZxABCG11 overexpression affects the expression of wax biosynthesis and transport related genes.
