Genome-wide trait-trait dynamics correlation study dissects the gene regulation pattern in maize kernels

Abstract Background Dissecting the genetic basis and regulatory mechanisms for the biosynthesis and accumulation of nutrients in maize could lead to the improved nutritional quality of this crop. Gene expression is regulated at the genomic, transcriptional, and post-transcriptional levels, all of wh...
