Lilium pumilum stress-responsive NAC transcription factor LpNAC17 enhances salt stress tolerance in tobacco.

ABSTRACT: Lilium pumilum is a perennial herb with ornamental edible and medicinal value. It is an excellent wild germplasm resource with wide distribution and strong resistance. The NAC family of transcription factors is unique to higher plants. The NAC family plays a regulatory role in plant growth and development and participates in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. The LpNAC17 gene of L. pumilum was cloned and transformed into tobacco to investigate the response of transgenic tobacco to salt stress. The results showed that the net photosynthetic rate and contents of chlorophyll in LpNAC17 over-expressed tobacco were higher than those in the control plants, while the stomatal conductance, transpiration rate and intercellular CO₂ concentration we
