A multigenotype maize silk expression atlas reveals how exposure‐related stresses are mitigated following emergence from husk leaves

Abstract The extraordinarily long stigmatic silks of corn (Zea mays L.) are critical for grain production but the biology of their growth and emergence from husk leaves has remained underexplored. Accordingly, gene expression was assayed for inbreds ‘B73’ and ‘Mo17’ across five contiguous silk secti...
