Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb331880
• Gene Symbol: Dlf1
• Gene Name: delayed flowering1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• The mechanism of how Dlf1 promotes floral transition remains largely unknown.
• Nucleotide diversity analysis revealed that Dlf1 and ZmMADS67 were targeted by selection, suggesting that they may have played important roles in maize flowering time adaptation.
• Dlf1 (delayed flowering1) encodes a basic leucine zipper protein that interacts with the florigen ZCN8 to mediate floral induction in the shoot apex.
• Dlf1 promotes flowering probably through regulations in stimulus response, reproduction and development, and metabolism.
• Dlf1 promotes floral transition by directly activating ZmMADS4 and ZmMADS67 in the maize shoot apex.
