Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS2A02G175700
• Gene Symbol: TaCYP78A5-2A
• Gene Name: cytochrome
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Constitutive overexpression of TaCYP78A5 enhances grain weight but not grain yield per plant.
• Localized overexpression of TaCYP78A5 in maternal integument increases grain weight and grain yield per plant.
• The growth-promoting effect of TaCYP78A5 on plant organs is limited by the travel distance of a mobile factor.
• TaCYP78A5 promotes grain enlargement through auxin accumulation.
• TaCYP78A5 promotes grain enlargement by auxin-mediated prolongation of maternal epidermal cell proliferation.
• Naturally occurring variations in the promoter of TaCYP78A5-2A contribute to thousand-grain weight (TGW) and grain yield per plant of wheat;TaCYP78A5-2A haplotype Ap-HapII with higher activity is favourable for improving grain weight and grain yield per plant and has been positively selected in wheat breeding.
