New insights into the role of MADS-box transcription factor gene CmANR1 on root and shoot development in chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium).

These findings provide potential mechanisms of MADS-box TF CmANR1 modulation of root and shoot development, which occurs by regulating a series of nitrate signaling associated TFs, and influencing the metabolic pathways of amino acid and glycolysis, as well as TCA cycle and nitrate assimilation.
