The Importance of a Genome-Wide Association Analysis in the Study of Alternative Splicing Mutations in Plants with a Special Focus on Maize.

Abstract excerpt

Alternative splicing is an important mechanism for regulating gene expressions at the post-transcriptional level. In eukaryotes, the genes are transcribed in the nucleus to produce pre-mRNAs and alternative splicing can splice a pre-mRNA to eventually form multiple different mature mRNAs, greatly increasing the number of genes and protein diversity. Alternative splicing is involved in the regulation of various...
