Apical dominance is a well-known phenomenon in which the growth of axillary buds is suppressed in the presence of the apical bud. The removal of the apical bud triggered the outgrowth of axillary buds
To decipher the molecular landscape of lateral bud outgrowth, we performed genome-wide expression profiling studies. Using RNA–seq after GA3 or BA treatment at node 1 of three-week-old J. curcas seedl
