Elucidating the patterns of pleiotropy and its biological relevance in maize.
Pleiotropy-when a single gene controls two or more seemingly unrelated traits-has been shown to impact genes with effects on flowering time, leaf architecture, and inflorescence morphology in maize. However, the genome-wide impact of biological pleiotropy across all maize phenotypes is largely unkno...
