Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb206040
• Gene Symbol: ZmLOX10
• Gene Name: lipoxygenase10
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• The maize lipoxygenase, ZmLOX10, mediates green leaf volatile, jasmonate and herbivore-induced plant volatile production for defense against insect attack.
• The results from these two experiments in two genetic backgrounds strongly advocate that ZmLOX10 has an important function in the mediation of HIPV production in response to insect herbivory.
• ZmLOX10 is a key modulator of insect defense in maize by regulating JA, GLV and HIPV production in response to herbivory.
• These data strongly suggest that ZmLOX10 is involved in the wound-induced regulation of OPDA and JA biosynthesis, but not in the production of basal levels of these octadecanoids.
