Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb147800
• Gene Symbol: NA1 ZmDET2
• Gene Name: nana plant1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Treatment of wild-type maize plants with BR biosynthesis inhibitors completely mimicked both dwarf and tasselseed phenotypes of NA1 mutants.
• Tissue-specific NA1 expression in anthers throughout their development supports the hypothesis that BRs promote masculinity of the male inflorescence.
• NA1 plants carry a loss-of-function mutation in a DET2 homolog—a gene in the BR biosynthetic pathway.
• Tissue-specific NA1 expression in anthers throughout their development supports the hypothesis that BRs promote masculinity of the male inflorescence.
• Defects in NA1 Greatly Reduced Endogenous BR Levels.
