Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb314550
• Gene Symbol: ZmMs7
• Gene Name: male sterile7
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Here, we develop a multicontrol sterility (MCS) system based on the maize male sterility 7 (ms7) mutant and its wild-type Zea mays Male sterility 7 (ZmMs7) gene via a transgenic strategy, leading to the utilization of GMS in hybrid seed production.
• ZmMs7 is isolated by a map-based cloning approach and encodes a PHD-finger transcription factor orthologous to rice PTC1 and Arabidopsis MS1.
• Construction of a multicontrol sterility system for a maize male-sterile line and hybrid seed production based on the ZmMs7 gene encoding a PHD-finger transcription factor.
• Ms7 is a single recessive mutant that exhibits complete male sterility in maize.
• ZmMs7 is an anther-specific gene.
• ZmMs7 gene to restore fertility.
