Genetic determinants controlling maize rubisco activase gene expression and a comparison with rice counterparts
Abstract Background Rubisco activase (RCA) regulates the activity of Rubisco and is a key enzyme of photosynthesis. RCA expression was widely reported to affect plant photosynthesis and crop yield, but the molecular basis of natural variation in RCA expression in a wide range of maize materials has...
