Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • A maize glossy (GL6) mutant that exhibited decreased epicuticular wax load, increased cuticle permeability, and reduced seedling drought tolerance relative to wild-type.
  • The GL6 gene represents a novel maize glossy gene containing a conserved, but uncharacterized, DUF538 domain.
  • The GL6 protein may be involved in the intracellular trafficking of cuticular waxes, opening the door to elucidating the poorly understood process by which cuticular wax is transported from its site of biosynthesis to the plasma membrane.
  • GL6 mutant showed a more severe wilting phenotype in response to drought-stress.
