Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb007950
• Gene Symbol: GT1 Zmhdz-15
• Gene Name: GRASSY TILLERS1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• GT1 and ra3, which together regulate carpel suppression, meristem determinacy, and axillary meristem suppression.
• GT1 Suppresses ra3 Tassel and Ear Branching.
• GT1 and RA3 Regulate Genes Predicted to Mediate Programmed Cell Death.
• Dissection of floral development revealed that ra3 single mutants have partially derepressed carpels, whereas GT1;ra3 double mutants have completely derepressed carpels.
