Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: TaTAR2.1-3A
• Gene Name: RYPTOPHAN AMINOTRANSFERASE RELATED
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• The Auxin Biosynthetic TRYPTOPHAN AMINOTRANSFERASE RELATED TaTAR2.1-3A Increases Grain Yield of Wheat.
• Overexpressing TaTAR2.1-3A in wheat enhanced LR branching, plant height, spike number, grain yield, and aerial N accumulation under different N supply levels.
• Overexpressing TaTAR2.1-3A in Arabidopsis elevated auxin accumulation in the primary root tip, LR tip, LR primordia, and cotyledon and hypocotyl and increased primary root length, visible LR number, and shoot fresh weight under high- and low-N conditions.
• Our results indicate that TaTAR2.1 is critical for wheat growth and also shows potential for genetic engineering to reach the aim of improving the grain yield of wheat.
