comments:
  - Overexpression of GmBTB/POZ increases resistance to Phytophthora sojae in GmLHP1 overexpressing plants.
phenotype_synopsis: the product of GmBTB/POZ positively regulates the plant's response to Phytophthora sojae infection by marking the product of GmLHP1 for degradation, thus activating the transcription factor GmWRKY40.
