Whole-Genome and Transposed Duplication Contributes to the Expansion and Diversification of <i>TLC</i> Genes in Maize

TLC (TRAM/LAG/CRN8) proteins play important roles in ceramide metabolism and mycotoxin resistance. Herein a comparative genomics analysis of TLCs was performed in 31 plant and 3 species from other kingdoms, with an emphasis mainly on maize. TLCs were conserved across kingdoms and expanded in angiosp...
