Maize microRNA166 Inactivation Confers Plant Development and Abiotic Stress Resistance

Maize microRNA166 Inactivation Confers Plant Development and Abiotic Stress Resistance

MicroRNAs are important regulators in plant developmental processes and stress responses. In this study, we generated a series of maize STTM166 transgenic plants. Knock-down of miR166 resulted in various morphological changes, including rolled leaves, enhanced abiotic stress resistance, inferior yie...
