Genome-wide evolutionary characterization and expression analysis of SIAMESE-RELATED family genes in maize

Abstracts Background The SIAMESE (SIM) locus is a cell-cycle kinase inhibitor (CKI) gene that has to date been identified only in plants; it encodes a protein that promotes transformation from mitosis to endoreplication. Members of the SIAMESE-RELATED (SMR) family have similar functions, and some ar...
