Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os07g44690
• RAPdb gene ID: Os07g0640900
• Gene Symbol: OsHsfB4b
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Over-expression of the OsHsfB4b gene in Arabidopsis and rice can increase the resistance to drought stress.
• OsHsfB4b Confers Enhanced Drought Tolerance in Transgenic Arabidopsis and Rice.
• Both OsHsfB4b and OsHsfB4d showed strong responses to the stress treatment.
• This study provides a basis for understanding the function and evolutionary history of the OsHsf gene family, enriching our knowledge of understanding the biological functions of OsHsfB4b and OsHsfB4d genes involved in the stress response in rice, and also reveals the potential value of OsHsfB4b in rice environmental adaptation improvement.
• The results of subcellular localization showed that the OsHsfB4b protein was in the nucleus whereas the OsHsfB4d protein was located in both the nucleus and cytoplasm.
