Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb305810
• Gene Symbol: ZmGBSS1b gbss1
• Gene Name: granule-bound starch synthase1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• We identified gene involved in carbohydrate metabolism, including Zm00001eb282250 and ZmGBSS1b.
• ZmGBSS1b is homologous to Arabidopsis UDP-glycosyltransferase gene AtGBSS, which was involved in transitory starch synthesis.
• ZmGBSS1b, ZmGLN1, ZmXYL4, and ZmHB41 may be involved in regulating grain production and carbohydrates/N assimilates transport.
• ZmGBSS1b, ZmHB41, and ZmXYL4 may also play key roles in C metabolism and the transport of carbohydrate/N assimilates, affecting grain production in response to N availability.
