Summary (AI generated)

We have constructed 12 different cloning vectors to drive an amiRNA library and sublibraries. For example, I am interested in studying the plant hormone ABA and how it reaches the guard cells. I plan to use the KST1 promoter, which is specifically expressed in guard cells, to clone the library and screen for ABA-related phenotypes. This is just one specific example from the library to demonstrate a proof of concept.
