THE BORON TRANSPORTER SIBOR1 FUNCTIONS IN CELL WALL INTEGRITY, CELLULAR HOMEOSTASIS, AND PANICLE DEVELOPMENT IN FOXTAIL MILLET

The boron transporter SiBOR1 functions in cell wall integrity, cellular homeostasis, and panicle development in foxtail millet

Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for vascular plant growth.Both B deficiency and toxicity can impair tissue development in diverse plant species, but little is known about the effect of B on reproductive panicle development and grain yield.In this study, a mutant of Setaria italica exhibiting necrotic panicle Bed apices was identified and de
