Although yield output of maize (Zea mays L.) has improved markedly over the last century, procedures for improving the grain-filling process remain elusive.Our aim in this study was to relate grain-filling variation in maize (including kernels in apical and middle positions in the ears) to plant density and nitrogen (N) application rate using a cro
Ent-kaurene Hair Dryer oxidase (EKO) catalyze three sequential oxidations in the early steps of gibberellin biosynthesis pathway.In this research, a cDNA sequence of InEKO1 gene in the model short-day plant Ipomoea nil was identified.Our studies revealed that inductive conditions for flowering caused an increase in the transcriptional activity of t
