Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS5A02G542800
• Gene Symbol: ALI-1
• Gene Name: Awn Length Inhibitor 1
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Natural variations in the promoter of Awn Length Inhibitor 1 (ALI-1) are associated with awn elongation and grain length in common wheat.
• ALI-1 was observed to increase grain length in wheat, which is a valuable attribute of awn on grain weight, aside from photosynthesis.
• ALI-1 negatively regulates awn elongation through restraining cytokinin-mediated cell proliferation.
• Pleiotropic effects of ALI-1 on awn and grain development.
• ALI-1 represses cytokinin-mediated cell proliferation in awn.
