Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb146710
• Gene Symbol: ZmAsft2 asft2
• Gene Name: aliphatic suberin feruloyl transferase2
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Double mutant (ZmAsft2) with asf1 (hct10) have a compromised suberin lamellae ultrastructure that increased cell wall elasticity and apoplastic water diffusion.
• ALIPHATIC SUBERIN FERULOYL TRANSFERASE mutant (Zmasft) reduced barriers to apoplastic water movement, resulting in higher E and, potentially, Lv and, consequently, lower Δ18OLW. The difference in Δ18OLW in cellulose synthase-like F6 (CslF6) mutants and wild-type of rice (Oryza sativa) grown under two light intensities co-varied with stomatal density.
