“…A large number of WRKY genes have been isolated and characterized in various plant species, such as in Arabidopsis (Eulgem et al, 2000), Zea mays (Wei et al, 2012), Gossypium (Dou et al, 2014), Medicago truncatula ( and Nan, 2014), Cucumis sativus (Ling et al, 2011), B. rapa , Vitis vinifera , Carica papaya (Pan and Jiang, 2014), Coffea arabica (Ramiro et al, 2010), Populus , Hevea brasiliensis , Coptis japonica (Kato et al, 2007), and Catharanthus roseus (Yang et al, 2013). However, knowledge on WRKYs of G. biloba remains limited.…”
