Overexpression of ZmIPT2 gene delays leaf senescence and improves grain yield in maize

Overexpression of ZmIPT2 gene delays leaf senescence and improves grain yield in maize

Cytokinins (CTKs) are a major phytohormone group that are significant in the promotion of cellular division, growth, and divergence. Isopentenyl transferase (IPT) regulates a rate-limiting step in plant CTK synthesis, promotes the synthesis of isopentenyl adenonucleotides from 5-AMP and isopentenyl...
