Characterization of poplar growth-regulating factors and analysis of their function in leaf size control
Abstract Background Growth-regulating factors (GRFs) are plant-specific transcription factors that control organ size. Nineteen GRF genes were identified in the Populus trichocarpa genome and one was reported to control leaf size mainly by regulating cell expansion. In this study, we further charact...
