Effects of ethephon on DNA methylation and gene expressions associated with shortened internodes in maize

In this study, the molecular mechanism underlying ethephon-induced shortened internodes in maize was investigated using Zhengdan958 maize variety. The ethephon treatment was performed by spraying 225 mL/ha Ethephon 40% SL onto the foliage at the eight-expanded-leaves stage. The differentially expres...
