Functional Descriptions:

• ms13-6060 displays complete male sterility with multiple cytological defects of maize anthers.
• The conserved amino acid I311 is indispensable for the multiple functions of ZmMS13/ ZmABCG2a.
• Triphasic regulation of ZmMs13 encoding an ABCG transporter is sequentially required for callose dissolution, pollen exine and anther cuticle formation in maize.
• ZmMs13 encodes a PM- and ER-localized ABCG transporter (ZmABCG2a) with multiple functions.
• ZmMs13 is essential for callose dissolution, tapetal PCD, pollen exine and anther cuticle formation.
