Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Seed shattering (SS) negatively impacts seed yield in Psathyrostachys juncea. Understanding and improving the SS trait requires elucidating the regulatory mechanisms of SS and identifying the key genes involved. RESULTS: This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the abscission zone (AZ) structures at four developmental stages in two P. juncea genotypes. High-SS P. juncea (H) exhibited a...
