Abstract excerpt
Rising global demand for food quantity and quality requires precision strategies on fine-tuning trait-related gene expression targeting crop improvement. Dynamic covalent modifications on mRNA add a reversible layer of post-transcriptional regulation on gene expression, yet their trait-level logic in crops remains fragmented. Recent studies connect epitranscriptomic enzymes and readers to yield components,...
