Diverse heterotic groups have been developed in China over several decades, but their genomic divergences have not been systematically studied after improvement. In this study, we performed Maize6H-60K array of 5,822 maize accessions and wh...
DSD1/ZmICEb regulates stomatal development and drought tolerance in maize [0.03%]
DSD1/ZmICEb调节玉米的气孔发育和干旱耐受性
Wenqi Zhou,Jun Yin,Yuqian Zhou et al.
Wenqi Zhou et al.
Maize (Zea mays L.) growth and yield are severely limited by drought stress worldwide. Stomata play crucial roles in transpiration and gas exchange and are thus essential for improving plant water-use efficiency (WUE) to help plants deal wi...
The LUX-SWI3C module regulates photoperiod sensitivity in Arabidopsis thaliana [0.03%]
LUX-SWI3C模块调节拟南芥的光周期敏感性
Jianhao Wang,Huan Liu,Hong Li et al.
Jianhao Wang et al.
In plants, the photoperiod sensitivity directly influences flowering time, which in turn affects latitudinal adaptation and yield. However, research into the mechanisms underlying photoperiod sensitivity, particularly those mediated by epig...
