Key message SMC5/6 complex subunit OsMMS21 is involved in cell cycle and hormone signaling and required for stem cell proliferation during shoot and root development in rice . The structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC)5/6 complex is required for nucleolar integrity and DNA metabolism. Moreover,...
