• Gene Name: ZmLACCASE9
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Overexpression of ZmLAC9 increased the accumulation of lignin, thickened the walls of pavement cells, and improved salt tolerance of maize.
• Knockout of MIR408a or MIR408b or overexpression of ZmLAC9 increased the accumulation of lignin, thickened the walls of pavement cells, and improved salt tolerance of maize.
• ZmLAC9 are highly accumulated in vascular tissues of maize.
• ZmLAC9-overexpressing transgenic maize showed that miR408 is important in controlling secondary cell wall development and salt tolerance in maize.
