Regulatory control of orchestrated silk elongation moderated by sugar metabolism, phytohormone signalling and secondary metabolite dynamics
The sequential silk elongation on an ear is collectively coordinated by assimilates competition, phytohormone signals, and secondary metabolism, providing foundations for crop improvement in combating barren ear tip.
