Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: Allele-specific expressed genes (ASEGs) are widespread in maize hybrid lines and play important roles of complementation of biological pathways in heterosis. Heterosis (hybrid vigor) is an important phenomenon with both theoretical and practical value. However, our understanding of the genetic and molecular mechanisms behind heterosis is still limited. Here, we analyzed a comprehensive dataset of...
