Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb292100
• Gene Symbol: ZmSiR
• Gene Name: sulfite reductase1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Using a genome-wide association study, we uncovered a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant in the sulfite reductase (SiR) gene that was significantly associated with SiR protein abundance in a maize natural association population.
• ZmSiR could influence the protein abundance through a posttranscriptional mechanism and in part contribute to natural variation in sulfur assimilation.
• Genetic polymorphisms in the exon of ZmSiR could influence the protein abundance through a posttranscriptional mechanism and in part contribute to natural variation in sulfur assimilation.
• Enzymatic activity of sulfite reductase from Zea mays (ZmSiR) in plant leaf extracts of SNP69C and SNP69G genotypes at the seedling stage.
