ZmMYB31 regulates the expression of ABA-related genes, potentially affecting the maize drought response. A ZmMYB31 targets multiple genes likely associated with the abiotic stress response. B ZmMYB31 shows a similar expression pattern as the potential targets. C An EMS mutant of ZmMYB31 with an early stop codon resulting in premature termination of translation. D Differential expression analysis of potential target genes in the mutant and WT determined by RNA-seq. E–G ZmMYB31 targets HB12 (E), ZmRZPF12 (F), and ZmCAPE5 (G). Both CUT&Tag and RNA-seq data support the regulatory relationships inferred from the GRNs. H The myb31 mutant and WT exhibit significantly different drought responses, as determined by their survival rates (data are means ± SD; three replicates; paired Student’s t test; “**” represents P < 0.01); scale bar, 10 cm. I, J ZmMYB31 is significantly associated with survival rate after drought treatment in maize inbred lines (association analysis in 347 maize lines using a general linear model [GLM])
