As an excellent grafting material, Malus baccata (L.) Borkh is native to Liaoning, Jilin, Heilongjiang and other regions in China, with a strong adverse environmental adaptability. As a typical transcription factor, the NAC gene acts as a regulator in many molecular pathways responding to abiotic st...
