Reviewer 1 Report
Dear Authors,
The manuscript entitled "How many faces does the plant U-box E3 ligase have?" is a well-thought-out and written review paper. Of course, more can always be written. The work has a logical layout. I would suggest swapping sections 6.1. and 6.2. and 6.5. and 6.6.
At the beginning of the introduction, there is a piece of text leftover from the template. When you give the Latin name of the species for the first time, use the full name together with the authority.

Response 1: We swapped the sections according to the reviewer’s suggstion.

Response 2: We removed the template and revised the Latin names of species acorrdingly.
Reviewer 2 Report
I don't have any further comments on this manuscript since it is well written and easy to understand. As a person not familiar with PUB genes, the manuscript offers much information regarding the speciality of PUBs. There are only a few minor errors that need to be revised.
- The first paragraph is the comment from a reviewer? It is not the context.
- Line108, this is an error.
- Line 768 has a similar error.
- I would like to suggest the authors produce a schematic that PUBs are involved in abiotic and biotic stress tolerance.
