Abstract Maize early endosperm development is initiated in coordination with elimination of maternal nucellar tissues. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we characterize a major quantitative trait locus for maize kernel size and weight that encodes an EXPANSIN gene, ZmEXPB15 . The encoded β-expansin protein expressed specifically nucellus, positively controls by promoting nucellus elimination. We further show two nucellus-enriched transcription factors (TFs),...
Maize develops separate ear and tassel inflorescences with initially similar morphology but ultimately different architecture sexuality. The detailed regulatory mechanisms underlying these changes still remain largely unclear. In this study, through analyzing the time-course meristem transcriptomes floret single-cell of tassel, we revealed dynamics pathways inflorescence development sex differentiation. We identified 16 diverse gene clusters differential spatiotemporal expression patterns...
Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network maintains proper function of all organisms. Simple high-throughput technologies are desperately needed to delineate the landscape PPI networks. While recent state-of-the-art yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) systems improved screening efficiency, either individual colony isolation, library preparation arrays, gene barcoding or massive sequencing still required. Here, we developed a recombination-based 'library vs library' Y2H system (RLL-Y2H), by which...
Abstract Background Maize ( Zea mays L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide. Although sophisticated maize gene regulatory networks (GRNs) have been constructed for functional genomics and phenotypic dissection, a multi-omics GRN connecting translatome transcriptome lacking, hampering our understanding exploration regulatome. Results We collect spatio-temporal data systematically explore landscape transcription translation across 33 tissues or developmental stages maize. Using this...
Abstract Interactomes are powerful tools for encoding and decoding complex life systems. Here, we generated a maize interactome map that integrates genomic interactions, transcriptomic co-expression networks, translatomic protein–protein interactions throughout the lifecycle. This map, containing over 9 million in more than 5,000 functional modules, reveals extensive divergence duplicate genes progressive increase regulatory between two subgenomes during flow of genetic information. network...
