Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb019130
• Gene Symbol: ZmArf2 GB1 arf2
• Gene Name: ADP-ribosylation factor homolog2
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmArf2 overexpression increased maize kernel size. Furthermore, heterologous expression of ZmArf2 dramatically elevated Arabidopsis and yeast growth by promoting cell division.
• An ARF24-ZmArf2 module influences kernel size in different maize haplotypes.
• Maize ZmArf2 mutants showed a characteristic smaller kernel size.
• The ZmArf2 mutation negatively affects kernel weight and width.
• ZmArf2 positively regulates maize kernel size and plant agronomic traits through a complex molecular pathway.
