Genome-wide identification and analysis of WRKY gene family in maize provide insights into regulatory network in response to abiotic stresses

Abstract Background The WRKY transcription factor family plays significant roles in biotic and abiotic stress responses, which has been associated with various biological processes in higher plants. However, very little is known regarding the structure and function of WRKY genes in maize. Results In...
