Abstract:
ADH1 (alcohol dehydrogenase 1) was involved in plant growth and development and responded to various stresses. We published a cold-induced alcohol dehydrogenase 1 gene from C. bungeana, CbADH1, which exists 43 unique amino acids. Here, we confirmed that overexpression of CbADH1 in Arabidopsis and tobacco significantly improved cold shock tolerance through electrolyte leakage, semi-lethal temperature, phenotypic and survival analysis. These results indicate that CbADH1 is the candidate gene to improve the ability of plant freezing resistance, and it has great application value.
