Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • Cytochrome P450 mono-oxygenase CYP703A2 plays a central role in sporopollenin formation and ms5ms6 fertility in cotton.
  • Ms5 and Ms6 encode GhCYP703A2 and function in fatty acid hydroxylation.
  • GhCYP703A2 mutations in ms5ms6A alter anther fatty acid and lipid profiles.
  • Our characterization uncovered functions of GhCYP703A2 in sporopollenin formation and fertility, providing guidance for creating male-sterile lines to facilitate hybrid cotton production and therefore exploit heterosis for improvement of cotton.
