Identification of a major locus controlling high-temperature tolerance in maize tassels

Abstract Background High-temperature stress severely affects maize production and leads to significant yield losses. Breeding maize varieties with enhanced high-temperature tolerance is an effective strategy to mitigate these adverse effects. Identifying quantitative trait loci (...

Investigation of the maize (Zea mays L.) JAZ pan-gene family and expression pattern under drought stress conditions

Abstract The hormone jasmonic acid (JA) regulates plant growth and development, acts as a stress-tolerant signaling molecule, and ensures tolerance to drought stressors. The jasmonate zim-domain (JAZ) functions as a transcriptional repressor by directly interacting with transcrip...
