Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS2D03G1217700
• Gene Symbol: TaARF12-D
• Gene Name: Auxin response factor 12
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• TaARF12 mutations reduced plant height but increased spike length.
• The editing of a wheat auxin response factor TaARF12 by using CRISPR/Cas9 that rendered shorter plant height with larger spikes.
• TaARF12 complemented plant height reduction with larger spikes that gave higher grain yield.
• Manipulation of TaARF12 may represent a new strategy in trait pyramiding for yield improvement in wheat.
• TaARF12 exhibited spatial, temporal and tissue specificity in gene expression patterns that may suggest different regulatory modes in peduncle and rachis.
• The regulatory mechanisms of TaARF12 in reducing plant height but making larger spikes when mutated.
