Genome-wide identification of the YABBY gene family in wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) and functional analysis of BhYAB2 in fruit and leaf development
The YABBY transcription factor family plays a central regulatory role in lateral organ morphogenesis in plants, yet its functions in wax gourd ( Benincasa hispida ) remain poorly understood. Eight BhYAB genes belonging to five subfamilies were identified in the wax gourd genome, each closely rela...
