BACKGROUND: Leaf angle is a key trait for maize plant architecture that plays a significant role in its morphological development, and ultimately impacting maize grain yield. Although many studies have been conducted on the association and localization of genes regulating leaf angle in maize, most of the candidate genes identified are associated with the regulation of ligule-ear development and phytohormone...
