MdXERICO negatively regulates salt tolerance in apple through ubiquitination and degradation of MdJAZ10
Abstract The growth, development, and yield of the globally important economic crop, apple, are severely restricted by soil salinisation, which is driven by multiple environmental and human factors. Thus, breeding salt-tolerant apple varieties by deciphering key salt-stress response mechanisms is crucial for sustainable production. Although RING-H2-type E3 ubiquitin ligases play vital roles in…
