Abstract excerpt
Plant height and leaf angle are two crucial determinants of plant architecture in maize (Zea mays) and are closely related to lodging resistance and canopy photosynthesis at high planting density. These two traits are primarily regulated by several phytohormones. However, the mechanism of ethylene in regulating plant architecture in maize, especially plant height and leaf angle, is unclear. Here, we characterized...
