Structure-guided identification of catalytic determinants in ZmGA20ox enables rational CRISPR target selection for gibberellin engineering in maize

Gibberellin 20-oxidase is a key enzyme controlling gibberellin biosynthesis and represents an attractive target for engineering plant architecture and drought tolerance in maize. In this study, we developed a structure-guided computational workflow to investigate functionally important residues in maize gibberellin 20-...

Unravelling the Genetic Basis of Insect Resistance in Maize: Progress and Future Challenges

Maize, the queen of cereals, is generally affected by several insect pests throughout its lifecycle and by post-harvest pests, which affects yield and grain quality, resulting in heavy reliance on chemical insecticides. Although host-plant resistance is environmentally friendly, its polygenic inheritance, genotype-by-e...
