Comparative genome-wide analysis of WRKY, MADS-box and MYB transcription factor families in Arabidopsis and rice

Abstract Transcription factors (TFs) form the major class of regulatory genes and play key roles in multiple plant stress responses. In most eukaryotic plants, transcription factor (TF) families (WRKY, MADS-box and MYB) activate unique cellular-level abiotic and biotic stress-responsive strategies,...
