Abstract excerpt
Reproductive development is a crucial process during plant growth. The structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) 5/6 complex has been studied in various species. However, there are few studies on the biological function of SMC6 in plant development, especially during reproduction. In this study, knocking out of both AtSMC6A and AtSMC6B led to severe defects in Arabidopsis seed development, and expression of...
