Deciphering Microprotein–TF Regulatory Crosstalk: An Integrative Transcriptomic and Evolutionary Analysis of MIF1–ZHD Interaction in Brassica napus Seed Development
Seed development in Brassica napus is tightly regulated at many stages. Microproteins (miPs), small regulatory peptides derived from larger ancestral proteins, have emerged as key post-translational modulators in plants; however, their role in seed development remains poorly understood. Here, a genome-wide screen for p...
