Drought and high salinity are key limiting factors for cotton production. Therefore, research is increasingly focused on the underlying stress response mechanisms of cotton. We first identified and cloned a novel gene encoding the 525 amino acids in cotton, namely <i>GhWRKY6</i>. qRT-PCR analysis indicated that <i>GhWRKY6</i> was induced by NaCl, PEG 6000 and ABA. Analyses of germination rate and root length indicated that overexpression of <i>GhWRKY6</i> in <i>Arabidopsis</i> resulted in hypers ...[more]
