CsRCI2D and CsRCI2G Have Different Characteristics under Temperature Stress in Camelina sativa L.

Camelina sativa L. is a bioenergy crop, which contains a large amount of linolenic acid in seed oil and is suitable for biodiesel production. Rare Cold Inducible 2 (RCI2) proteins were reported to be significantly induced by abiotic stress exposure such as low and high temperature, drought, and saline stress. According to previous study, overexpressing RCI2s enhances abiotic stress tolerance in many species, however, it is still remained uncharacterized RCI2s such as CsRCI2D and CsRCI2G under temperature stress. In this study, we analyzed different properties of CsRCI2D and CsRCI2G under low and high temperature stress in Camelina.
