    Overexpression of ZmNF-YC14 confers plant ER stress tolerance and ABA sensitivity in Arabidopsis

    The correct folding of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is vital for plant adaptation to adverse environmental conditions. The genes related to the ER stress response in maize are far from clear. In ...
