Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os12g27994
• RAPdb gene ID: Os12g0465700
• Gene Symbol: DEC
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Expression analysis showed that several type-A response regulator genes that act in the cytokinin (CK) signaling pathway were downregulated in the DEC mutant.
• Rice DECUSSATE controls phyllotaxy by affecting the cytokinin signaling pathway.
• In contrast to the SAM, the size of the root apical meristem (RAM) in DEC was reduced, and cell division activity was suppressed.
• In addition, DEC seedlings showed a reduced responsiveness to exogenous CK.
• The DEC mutants had an enlarged SAM with enhanced cell division activity.
