Evolutionary dynamics and functional diversification of BBX transcription factors in C4 grasses from Setaria italica and Setaria viridis
Our findings provide insights into the molecular evolution and functional diversification of <i>BBX</i> genes in C<sub>4</sub> grasses and offer potential targets for genetic improvement of heading date and stress tolerance in C<sub>4</sub> crops.
