Control of axillary bud growth in tobacco through toxin gene expression system
Abstract The control of axillary bud development after removing the terminal buds (topping) of plants is a research hotspot, and the control of gene expression, like switching on and off, allows us to further study biological traits of interest, such as plant branching and fertility. In this study,...
