Liu J, Yang B, Chen X, Zhang T, Zhang H, Du Y, et al.
J Genet Genomics . 2024 Dec; 52(3):334-345. PMID: 39736427
Saline-alkali soil severely reduces the productivity of crops, including maize (Zea mays). Although several genes associated with saline-alkali tolerance have been identified in maize, the underlying regulatory mechanism remains elusive....

Yang Y, Li X, Li C, Zhang H, Tuerxun Z, Hui F, et al.
Int J Mol Sci . 2024 Feb; 25(3). PMID: 38339199
Multiple cis-acting elements are present in promoter sequences that play critical regulatory roles in gene transcription and expression. In this study, we isolated the cotton (Fiddlehead) gene promoter (pGhFDH) using...

Cai D, Zhang Z, Zhao L, Liu J, Chen H
Sci China Life Sci . 2022 Oct; 66(3):595-601. PMID: 36190647
Hybrid seed production technology (SPT) using genic recessive male sterility is of great importance in maize breeding. Here, we report a novel SPT based on a maize unilateral cross-incompatibility gene...

Chen Z, Zhang Z, Zhang H, Li K, Cai D, Zhao L, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Apr; 13(1):1993. PMID: 35422051
Maize unilateral cross-incompatibility (UCI) that causes non-Mendelian segregation ratios has been documented for more than a century. Ga1, Ga2, and Tcb1 are three major UCI systems, described but not fully...

Pei Y, Deng Y, Zhang H, Zhang Z, Liu J, Chen Z, et al.
Plant Cell . 2022 Mar; 34(6):2222-2241. PMID: 35294020
Ear length (EL) is a key trait that contributes greatly to grain yield in maize (Zea mays). While numerous quantitative trait loci for EL have been identified, few causal genes...

Sang N, Cai D, Li C, Sun Y, Huang X
Int J Mol Sci . 2019 Sep; 20(19). PMID: 31561427
Flowering transition is a crucial development process in cotton ( L.), and the flowering time is closely correlated with the timing of () expression. However, the mechanism underlying the coordination...

Zhang Z, Zhang B, Chen Z, Zhang D, Zhang H, Wang H, et al.
Nat Commun . 2018 Sep; 9(1):3678. PMID: 30202064
Unilateral cross-incompatibility (UCI) is a unidirectional inter/intra-population reproductive barrier when both parents are self-compatible. Maize Gametophyte factor1 (Ga1) is an intraspecific UCI system and has been utilized in breeding. However,...

Cai D, Liu H, Sang N, Huang X
PLoS One . 2017 Jun; 12(6):e0179038. PMID: 28591177
The CONSTANS/FLOWERING LOCUS T (CO/FT) regulon plays a central role in the control of flowering time in photoperiod-sensitive plants. Flowering time in wild cotton (Gossypium spp.) has strict photoperiod sensitivity,...
