Abstract excerpt

Recessive liguleless1 (lg1) gene significantly reduces leaf angle in maize and has become the choice in breeding for high plant density. Here, we sequenced the entire lg1 gene (5560 bp) among seven wild-type (Lg1) and one mutant (lg1) inbreds. The analysis revealed a total of 229 SNPs and 155 InDels within the Lg1 gene. The study also revealed the existence of three exons, with lg1-mutant having two exons. The...
