Genome-wide Identification of PP2C Genes and Their Expression Profiling in Response to Drought and Cold Stresses in Medicago truncatula.

abstract：:Climate influences vegetation directly and through climate-mediated disturbance processes, such as wildfire. Temperature and area burned are positively associated, conditional on availability of vegetation to burn. Fire is a self-limiting process that is influenced by productivity. Yet, many fire projections assume su...
