Figure 6From: Genome-wide identification and expression profiling of auxin response factor (ARF) gene family in maizeExpression profiling of ZmARF genes in embryos during seed development and germination. For maize inbred line B73, seed embryos of 15 and 20 days after pollination were harvested from greenhouse-grown plants which were planted in a sand/peat under 15 h of light (25°C) and 9 h of dark (20°C) conditions, and embryos were detached from seeds at 0, 12, 24 and 48 h after imbibition in a chamber at 25°C with 12 h light/dark cycle (12 h day/12 h night).Back to article page
