🌱 From Nature Communications: Hybrid vigor in maize may arise partly from master regulatory genes coordinating the activity of hundreds of other genes. (Jeffrey Ross-Ibarra) ▶️ www.nature.com/articles/s41... #PlantScience #PlantBiology #Genetics
The incomplete dominance of gene expression controlled by Trans-eQTL hotspots contributes to heterosis in maize - Nature Communications
This study shows that maize hybrids exhibit increased transcriptome activity than inbred parents in an incomplete dominance manner, contributing to hybrid vigor. This increase is primarily regulated b...
