Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb068900
• Gene Symbol: ZmILI1 ili1 qLA2
• Gene Name: increased leaf inclination1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmILI1 regulates leaf angle by directly affecting liguleless1 expression in maize.
• ZmILI1 is a central regulator of multiple signalling and developmental pathways related to LA formation during maize development, acting in both direct and indirect ways to affect the patterns of gene transcription.
• A better understanding of ZmILI1 regulatory pathways will provide new insights into useful information for the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying maize LA formation in the future.
• ZmILI1 regulates ability to clear reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintain cellular homeostasis; modulates the expression of transcription factor genes to help maize adapt to salt stress; enhances maize tolerance to salt stress.
