Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants are cold-sensitive, and the fruit are susceptible to postharvest chilling injury when stored at low temperature. However, the mechanisms underlying cold stress responses in tomato are poorly understood. We demonstrate that SlGRAS4, encoding a transcription factor induced by low temperature, promotes chilling tolerance in tomato leaves and fruit. Combined genome-wide ChIP-seq and RNA-seq approaches identified among cold stress-associated genes those being d ...[more]
