A multifunctional acetyl-CoA carboxylase gene confers freesing tolerance in arabidopsis thaliana

The sfr3-1 mutation causes freezing-sensitivity in Arabidopsis thaliana. Through mapping, sequencing and transgenic complementation, sfr3-1 was revealed as a missense mutation in ACC1, which is an essential gene encoding multifunctional acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Suppression of ACC1 expression by RNA i...
