A Comprehensive Analysis In Silico of <i>KCS</i> Genes in Maize Revealed Their Potential Role in Response to Abiotic Stress

β-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) enzymes play a pivotal role in plants by catalyzing the first step of very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis. This process is crucial for plant development and stress responses. However, the understanding of <i>KCS</i> genes in maize remains limited...
