Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb010460
• Gene Symbol: Lax2 aic3
• Gene Name: like-auxin2;auxin import carrier3
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• A part of gene family that maintains auxin distribution pattern against environmental or developmental influences
• In the present study the maize like-aux1 (lax1, GRMZM2G129413) and Lax2 (GRMZM2G149481) which encode auxin influx carriers, were down-regulated in rum1. In Arabidopsis, the AUX/LAX gene family members AUX1 and LAX3 act concomitantly in lateral root initiation and emergence.
• The auxin signalling-related genes, like-auxin2 (Lax2).
• Lax2 involved in auxin signal transduction.
