Description
In Arabidopsis, CBFs transcription factors (CBF1, CBF2 and CBF3) play fundamental roles in plant cold tolerance, especially in cold-acclimation. By employing CRISPR/Cas9, we knocked out CBF1 and CBF2 simultaneously in cbf3 background and generated cbfs triple mutant. This mutant facilitated the discovery of CBF-regulated genes. In this study, Arabidopsis 14-d-old Col-0 and cbfs mutant were treated with cold stress (4 degree centigrade) for 0, 3 and 24 hours. The seedlings were harvested for total RNA extraction and sequencing. Overall design: 14-day-old Col and cbfs-1 seedlings were treated under 4 degree for 0, 3 and 24 h. The RNA were extracted for RNA-sequencing.
