To be or not to be the odd one out--allele-specific transcription in pentaploid dogroses (Rosa L. sect. Caninae (DC.) Ser).

abstract：BACKGROUND:Calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins belong to a unique group of calcium sensors in plant that decode the Ca(2+) signature by interacting with CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs). Although CBL-CIPK complexes have been shown to play important roles in the responses to various stresses in plants, little is kn...
