Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Glyma.07g036200
• Gene Symbol: GmNFYA5
• Gene Name: nuclear transcription factor Y subunit A-5
• Genome: Wm82.a4.v1
• Species: Glycine max

Functional Descriptions:

• Our results suggested that overexpression of GmNFYA5 improved drought tolerance in soybean via both ABA-dependent and ABA-independent pathways.
• Overexpression of GmNFYA5 confers drought tolerance to transgenic Arabidopsis and soybean plants.
• Soybean NF-Y gene GmNFYA5 was identified to have the highest transcript level among all 21 NF-YA genes in soybean (Glycine max L.) under drought stress.
• GmNFYA5 was suppressed by the ABA synthesis inhibitor naproxen (NAP).
• GmNFYA5 probably regulated the transcript abundance of GmDREB2 and GmbZIP1 by binding to the promoters in vivo.
• GmNFYA5 should be a positive gene that can increase drought resistance and therefore has potential for use in molecular breeding of soybean.
