Gene Details

Functions:

  • Two candidate genes (rootless concerning crown and seminal roots, rtcs and Zm00001d012781) involved in auxin signaling and flavonoid biosynthesis were identified by co-expression network analysis.
  • The maize rtcs mutant forms a primary root with lateral roots but lacks seminal and crown roots.
  • The rtcs gene, which encodes a LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES (LOB) domain protein, is an auxin-responsive gene.
