In vitro activity:
Most of the MAPK downstream genes were related to calcium signaling (818 genes) rather than hormone signaling (157 genes). Moreover, the hormone signaling pathway predominantly contained auxin- and abscisic acid-related genes, indicating the crucial role of these hormones in ND response. Overall, 45 transcription factors were upregulated in both experiments, 5 WRKYs, 3 NACs, 2 MYBs, 2 ERFs, HD-Zip, RLP12, bHLH25, RADIALIS-like, and others, suggesting their ND regulation is independent from the presence of a root system.

In vivo activity:
Further protein-protein interaction and degradation assays showed that the repressor of the auxin cascade GhIAA17 serves as a substrate for the F-box E3 ligase GhMAX2. The in vivo ubiquitination assay suggested that GhMAX2-3 and GhMAX2-6 ubiquitinate GhIAA17 and coordinately degrade GhIAA17 with GhTIR1. The findings of this investigation offer valuable insights into the roles of GhMAX2-mediated SL signaling in cotton and establish a solid foundation for future endeavors aimed at optimizing cotton plant cultivation.
