Abstract excerpt
Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient for plants, and its deficiency in soils severely limits crop yield and grain nutritional quality. While the F-bZIP transcription factor OsbZIP48 is known to play a central role in maintaining Zn homeostasis in rice, the post-translational mechanisms that regulate its activity remain elusive. Here, we identify the WRKY transcription factor OsWRKY18 as a key...
