Abstract excerpt
Interaction between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolisms in plants is important to ensure efficient assimilation of these two major nutrients and thus to allow maximum growth and yield. Both pathways are well studied, but the regulatory elements and the processes are still mostly unknown. Quantitative genetics explore the natural variation of traits and offer an alternative approach to discover new genes and...
