Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb428490
• Gene Symbol: ZmACS7
• Gene Name: 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase7
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Through positional cloning, we identified a transposon insertion in the candidate gene ZmACS7, encoding 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) Synthase 7 in ethylene biosynthesis of maize.
• Transgenic analysis confirmed that the mutant ZmACS7 gene confers the phenotypes of the Sdw3 mutant.
• We demonstrated that ZmACS7 plays crucial roles in root development, flowering time, and leaf number, indicating that ZmACS7 is an important gene with pleiotropic effects during maize growth and development.
• ZmACS7 plays crucial roles in root development, flowering time, and leaf number in maize.
• ZmACS7 Confers Reduced Plant Height and Enlarged Leaf Angle in the Sdw3 Mutant.
• Increased ZmACS7 Function Alters Root Morphology and Causes Grain Yield Reduction in Maize
• ZmACS7 is an important gene with pleiotropic effects during maize growth and development.
