Abstract excerpt
Shoot branching is a crucial agronomic trait influencing crop yield. Multiple transcription factors orchestrate a sophisticated regulatory network to control shoot branching in response to internal and external cues. However, the role of epigenetic modification in shoot branching is less clear. Here, we found that SIRTUIN1 (SlSRT1), a histone deacetylase, promotes shoot branching by regulating transcription in...
