Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb071070
• Gene Symbol: D5 ZmTPS7 ZmTPS44
• Gene Name: dwarf plant 5|terpene synthase 7
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Exogenous application of GA3 to na2 and D5, a GA biosynthetic mutant, also resulted in a diverse pattern of growth responses, including BR-dependent GA responses.
• This demonstrates that the persistence of anthers in the ears of D5 mutants was not influenced by na2-1 and the loss of BR.
• D5, an ent-kaurene synthase, were used in this study.
• D5 mutants inhibited tassel seed production, exogenous GA3 was sufficient to increase tassel seeds in both na2-1 and the wild type.
• D5 increase in number of brace root whorls.
• Functional characterization of ZmTPS7 reveals a maize τ-cadinol synthase involved in stress response.
• Maize ( Zea mays ) terpene synthase 7 (ZmTPS7) was characterized as a τ-cadinol synthase, which exhibited constitutive and inducible gene expression patterns, suggesting involvement in stress response.
