Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb228120
• Gene Symbol: ZmHSP90 shpl1
• Gene Name: shepherd-like1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Maize ZmHSP90 plays a role in acclimation to salt stress.
• a significant finding has been made indicating that when exposed to high levels of salt stress, the expression of ZmHSP90 in ‘975-12’ increased while in ‘GEMS64’ decreased. Furthermore, in tobacco plants overexpressing ZmHSP90, there was an increase in antioxidant enzyme activity associated with salt tolerance.
• ZmHSP90 enhanced the expression levels of NtSOS1, NtHKT1, and NtNHX1 as compared to those in the salt treatment, causing the maintenance of Na+ and K+ homeostasis, suggesting that high expression of ZmHSP90 was conducive to regulate Na+ transporters to maintain K+/Na+ balanced in tobacco.
