Lipidomic and transcriptomic analyses reveal that the gene ZmLACS9 enhances salt stress tolerance by regulating chloroplast lipid metabolism and maintaining photosynthetic performance in maize

Salt stress is a major environmental factor limiting crop growth and productivity. We found a long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (LACS) gene ZmLACS9 that was associated with salt tolerance traits in maize (Zea mays). Mutation of ZmLACS9 impaired plant growth, while overexpression of...
