Histone acetylation is involved in GA-mediated 45S rDNA decondensation in maize aleurone layers

The aleurone layer is crucial to seed germination. Using dissected aleurone layers, we found that GA increased histone acetylation accompanied by rDNA decondensation in aleurone layers during maize seed germination. Aleurone layers play an important role in cereal seed germination. In this study, we reported that rDNA chromatin was decond...More
