Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: GmAOX2b
• Gene Name: alternative oxidase 3
• Genome:
• Species: Glycine max

Functional Descriptions:

• A GmAOX2b antisense gene compromises vegetative growth and seed production in soybean.
• Soybean (Glycine max) lines carrying a GmAOX2b antisense gene had compromised vegetative growth and reproductive performance under typical glasshouse growth conditions.
• Compromised seed yield in GmAOX2b AS soybean is due to pre-fertilisation defects brought about by the impaired development and function of both male and female gametophytes.
• Our finding that soybean containing a GmAOX2b antisense gene has reduced vegetative growth and reproductive capacity indicates that AOX is important to basic plant function, as well as being a determinant of fecundity, in this species.
