A research team, led by Professor Zhang Jinsong from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, revealed insights into the mechanism by which the membrane protein MHZ3 collaborates with the ethylene receptor to regulate the phosphorylation of OsCTR2 (CONSTITUTIVE TRIPLE RESPONSE2), thereby controlling the switch of the ethylene signaling in rice.
