Description

Zhang and co-authors review the m6A mark and how crops cope with stress. The m6A mark is the most common inner edit on plant RNA. Three protein groups write, erase, and read the mark. Those acts tune RNA life span, splicing, and protein output. New sequencing tools now map the mark across whole crops.

Studies show shared rules plus species-level twists in the network. Proof of function still rests on a few model plants. Field tests in real farm crops lag behind lab work. The review weighs breeding plans that use the mark. It also lists blocks that slow use in stress-proof crop design.
