Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS1B02G275000
• Gene Symbol: WPI1-1B
• Gene Name: wheat PI STILLATA 1
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• An in situ hybridization study demonstrated that the WPI1 gene is expressed in primordia of lodicules and stamens in developing florets in wheat.
• In the alloplasmic wheat line exhibiting pistillody, the WPI1 transcripts were not detected in the primordia of pistil-like stamens, whereas WPI1 was expressed in the lodicules.
• In situ hybridization study revealed that the WPI1 gene is expressed in the primordia of lodicules and stamens in developing florets of wheat, indicating that WPI1 is a putative wheat ortholog of PI.

Literature:

• Pistillody is caused by alterations to the class-B MADS-box gene expression pattern in alloplasmic wheats.   DOI:  10.1007/s00425-003-1157-6 ;  PMID:  14652757
