“…NAC TFs typically contain a highly conserved N-terminal DNA binding domain and a divergent C-terminal part (Olsen et al, 2005). NAC TFs play important roles in various biological processes, including senescence (Guo and Gan, 2006;Kim et al, 2009;Balazadeh et al, 2010Balazadeh et al, , 2011Lee et al, 2012;Hickman et al, 2013;Rauf et al, 2013), the response to abiotic and biotic stresses Hu et al, 2006;Jensen et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2009;Wu et al, 2009;Jeong et al, 2010), leaf development (Berger et al, 2009), secondary wall biosynthesis (Zhong et al, 2010(Zhong et al, , 2011, regulation of Fru sensitivity (Li et al, 2011), regulation of iron homeostasis (Ogo et al, 2008), and others. The NAC TF VASCULAR-RELATED NAC-DOMAIN INTERACTING2 (ANAC083) integrates abscisic acid signaling with leaf senescence (Yang et al, 2011) and negatively regulates xylem vessel formation (Yamaguchi et al, 2010).…”
