Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb355240
• Gene Symbol: Rap2.7
• Gene Name: rap2.7 orthologue
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmMADS69 and Rap2.7 map within well-characterized QTLs of flowering time suggesting that allelic variations at these genes control part of the diversity of flowering time of temperate maize.
• Rap2.7 involved in maize brace roots development.
• Another eQTL region (Bin 8.05) comprised the gene GRMZM2G700665 (also known as Rap2.7), encoding a floral repressor and negative regulator of ZCN8.
• For example, microRNA172s are known to interfere with the translation of APETALA2 genes (such as Rap2.7), indicating that transcript accumulation of Rap2.7 may not reflect its gene product levels.
