A long noncoding RNA HILinc1 enhances pear thermotolerance by stabilizing PbHILT1 transcripts through complementary base pairing
Abstract
Heat stress in pear cultivar results in upregulation of long non-coding RNA HILinc1, which binds to and stabilizes PbHILT1 mRNA, which codes for a protein that interacts with heat shock factor A1b, improving thermotolerance.
