Study on differentially expressed genes related to defoliation traits in two alfalfa varieties based on RNA-Seq
Abstract Background Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a widely cultivated, essential commercial forage crop. The protein content in its leaves is the critical factor in determining the quality of alfalfa. Thus far, the understanding of the molecular mechanism of alfalfa defoliation traits remains unclear...
