Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: ZmDRL1 is associated with maize leaf angle regulation, potentially through phytohormone-related pathways and interactions with ARF2. Leaf angle is a key determinant of plant architecture, influencing light interception and grain yield in maize. However, despite significant advances in elucidating the regulatory mechanisms of leaf angle, the number of functionally characterized genes involved in this...
