Genome-Wide Analysis of the Longan HB/HD-ZIP Gene Family and Heterologous Functional Analysis of DlHB22 Associated with Fruit Energy Metabolism

The HB (homeobox) transcription factor family plays important roles in plant growth, development, morphogenesis, and stress responses; however, its involvement in longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) fruit energy metabolism remains unclear. In this study, 32 DlHB family members were...

Natural variation in LuGnTL modulates the trade-off between plant height and seed size in flax (Linum usitatissimum L.)

Flax is an ancient crop cultivated for both fiber and oil, and it has undergone divergent selection into two distinct morphotypes: semi-dwarf oil flax with large seeds and tall fiber flax with small seeds. However, the genetic architecture underlying the trade-off between plant h...
