MicroRNAs are Involved in Maize Immunity Against Fusarium Verticillioides Ear Rot

Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2020
Abstract Fusarium ear rot (FER) caused by Fusarium verticillioides is one of the most common diseases affecting maize production worldwide. FER results in severe yield losses and grain contamination with health-threatening mycotoxins. Although most studies to date have focused on comprehensive analysis of gene regulation in maize during ...
