Identification of <i>XTH</i> Family Genes and Expression Analysis of Endosperm Weakening in Lettuce (<i>Lactuca sativa</i> L.)

Seed germination requires the relaxation of endosperm cap and radicle cell walls, with cell wall hydrolases playing a significant role in this process. Our study revealed that a type of cell wall hydrolase, xyloglucan endotransglucosylase, may significantly contribute to endosperm weakening during l...
