Functional Descriptions:

  • CsATAF1 Positively Regulates Drought Stress Tolerance by an ABA-Dependent Pathway and by Promoting ROS Scavenging in Cucumber.
  • Suppression of CsATAF1 via RNA interference (RNAi) weakened drought stress tolerance in cucumber due to a higher water loss rate in leaves, a higher level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and superoxide radicals (O2·−), increased malondialdehyde (MDA) content, lower Fv/Fm ratios and lower antioxidant enzyme activity.
  • CsATAF1-overexpression (OE) plants showed increased drought stress tolerance and sensitivity to ABA.
  • Our results demonstrated that CsATAF1 functioned as a positive regulator in response to drought stress by an ABA-dependent pathway and decreasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in cucumber.
