Maize plant architecture influences planting density and,in turn,grain yield.Most of the plant architecture-related traits can be described as organ size.We describe a miniature maize mutant,Tiny plant 4(Tip4),which e...
Production of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.), a staple legume crop in Sub-Saharan Africa, faces challenges due to biotic and abiotic constraints. Induced mutagenesis was deployed to create genetic variation in ...
The outbreak of SARS-CoV-2(severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2)has been influenced by the human response to the virus.These responses have undoubtedly impacted the evolutionary dynamics of the virus in way...
