Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb418700
• Gene Symbol: ZmCCT10 ZmCCT56 cct1
• Gene Name: CO CO-LIKE TIMING OF CAB1 protein domain1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmCCT10 as a candidate gene for qFH10 and found that differences between hybrids and their parental lines in DNA methylation in the differentially methylated region (DMR, –700 to –1520) of the ZmCCT10 promoter affected gene expression pattern and thereby FT in the summer maize-growing region.
• A differentially methylated region of the ZmCCT10 promoter affects flowering time in hybrid maize
• ZmCCT10 was accordingly selected as a candidate gene for qFH10.
• ZmCCT10 is orthologous to the rice photoperiod response regulator Ghd7 and is a crucial controller of variation in flowering time that has enabled the dispersion of maize from the tropics to temperate zones.
• ZmCCT10-relayed photoperiod sensitivity regulates natural variation in the arithmetical formation of male germinal cells in maize.
