Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Seita.4G288600
• Gene Symbol: SiPSY1
• Gene Name: Phytoene synthase 1
• Genome:
• Species: Setaria italica

Functional Descriptions:

• Genome-wide association analysis identified SiPSY1 as the candidate regulatory gene for yellow grain pigment in foxtail millet.
• SiPSY1 as the key regulator essential for yellow grain pigment in foxtail millet.
• Transcriptional variations in SiPSY1 at grains from 15 DAP determine yellow pigmentation accumulation in foxtail millet.
• SiPSY1 was selected during domestication of Setaria spp. and is still selectable for future breeding of foxtail millet.
