... thaliana Zea mays Evo-devo Auxin response Auxins are a group of small molecules that regulate plant growth and development through a simple signaling pathway (Lavy and Estelle, 2016 ; Leyser, 2018 ; Woodward and Bartel, 2005). This pathway is composed of proteins that enable three functions...

... of sumoylation during female gametophyte (FG) development in maize, we identified Zea mays genes encoding SUMO (ZmSUMO1a and ZmSUMO1b) and a diSUMO-like protein called ZmDSUL that contains two head-to-tail SUMO-like domains. Whereas ZmSUMO1a and ZmSUMO1b are almost ubiquitously expressed, ZmDSUL transcripts were...

... the action of ascorbate oxidase and ascorbic acid. Immunolocalization of auxin in the root tip of Zea mays showed that auxin levels in the quiescent center were high compared to the levels in the immediately surrounding meristematic cells. Isolated quiescent centers were shown to have high levels...

...W. L. Charlton; C. L. Keen; C. Merriman; P. Lynch; A. J. Greenland; H. G. Dickinson ABSTRACT Fertilisation in maize (Zea mays), in common with most angiosperms, involves two fusion events: one of the two sperm nuclei unites with the egg cell nucleus, while the other sperm nucleus fuses with the two...
