Comparative proteomic and transcriptomic analyses provide new insight into the formation of seed size in castor bean

Abstract Background Little is known about the molecular basis of seed size formation in endospermic seed of dicotyledons. The seed of castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) is considered as a model system in seed biology studies because of its persistent endosperms throughout seed development. Results We...
