Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb417150
• Gene Symbol: ZmCER8 ZmLACS1
• Gene Name: eceriferum8
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Gene co-expression network analysis aided the identification of two maize glossy genes, GRMZM2G101875 (ZmCER8), an Arabidopsis CER8 homolog, and Gl14, a glossy gene with unknown function.
• ZmCER8, participates in accumulation of epicuticular waxes in maize, demonstrating that the discovery of unknown glossy genes can be facilitated with GCN data.
• ZmCER8 mutant seedlings displayed a typical glossy phenotype.
