The DREB7 transcription factor enhances salt tolerance in soybean plants under salt stress.

ABSTRACT: DREB7 in Glycine max (L) is a novel trans-acting transcription factor (TF) that binds to the cis-acting sequences of promoters to activate the expression of downstream genes in response to abiotic factors. This study presents the experimental results and analyzes the relationship between the overexpression of the GmDREB7 and GmP5CS, as well as the proline content, in transgenic soybean lines. The results of qRT-PCR analysis of four TG1 transgenic soybean lines (TG1-2, TG1-5, TG1-7, and TG1-10) showed that the GmDREB7 gene had significantly higher transcriptional expression under untreated and salt stress conditions. Under salt stress conditions, the two transgenic lines, TG1-5 and TG1-10, had the most significant increase in GmDREB7 and GmP5CS</
