According the work of Langdale and colleagues [ 33], maize husks express mainly the C3 pathway of carbon fixation in contrast to leaf blades in which C4 fixation predominates.
In contrast, those genes that are highly expressed in silks and immature ears were expressed at comparable levels in husks (Figure 2node c).
Three immature ears (3-5 cm) were harvested after the tips of the husks had emerged from a leaf sheath; silks were excluded from immature ears.
Husks were collected from the same ear.
On the other hand, all other photosynthetic genes expressed at high levels in leaf blades were at low levels in husks, relative to seedlings.
