Abstract:Abstract. Maize may be exposed to several abiotic stresses in the field. Therefore, identifying the tolerance mechanisms of natural field stress is mandatory. Gene expression data of maize upon abiotic stress were collected, and 560 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified through meta-analysis. The most significant gene ontology terms in up-regulated genes were ‘response to abiotic stress’ and ‘chitinase activity’. ‘Phosphorelay signal transduction system’ was the most significant enriched biolog… Show more
