Overexpression of the maize transcription factor ZmVQ52 accelerates leaf senescence in Arabidopsis.

Overexpression of the maize transcription factor ZmVQ52 accelerates leaf senescence in Arabidopsis.

Leaf senescence plays an important role in the improvement of maize kernel yields. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms of leaf senescence in maize are largely unknown. We isolated ZmVQ52 and studied the function of ZmVQ52 which encoded, a VQ family transcription factor. ZmVQ52 is constitut...
