The transcription factor MhZAT10 enhances antioxidant capacity by directly activating the antioxidant genes MhMSD1, MhAPX3a, and MhCAT1 in apple rootstock SH6 (Malus honanensis × M. domestica).
A stress-tolerant rootstock for apple, SH6, activates antioxidant enzymes through transcription factor MhZAT10, improving stress tolerance. MhZAT10 boosts antioxidant enzyme activity and reduces ROS, enhancing plant growth and stress resistance.
