Heat Stress Tolerance - by A. Malcolm Campbell (Spring Semester, 2013)
There are four types of heat tolerance (Yeh et al., 2012)
- basal thermotolerance
- short-term acquired thermotolerance
- long-term acquired thermotolerance
- thermotolerance to moderately high temperature
Heat Shock Transcription Factors (HsFs) are subdivided into three classes called A, B and C. (Lin et al., 2011)
25 maize HsFs have been identified (see table from Lin et al.)
