Molecular analysis of menadione-induced resistance against biotic stress in Arabidopsis.

abstract：:Low grain moisture at harvest is crucial for safe production, transport, and storage, but the genetic architecture of this trait in maize (Zea mays) remains elusive. Here, we measured the dynamic changes in grain moisture content in an association mapping panel of 513 diverse maize inbred lines at five successive stag...
