Isolation and characterization of heat-shock protein 90 (hsp90) specific promoter of Cryptocoryne ciliata

Plants are equipped with various mechanisms for survival in extreme environments. Their ability to grow and adapt to extreme conditions such as high salinity, osmotic stress and ion toxicity is amazing.
