Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb038710
• Gene Symbol: ZmPGP1 br2
• Gene Name: brachytic2
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmPGP1 was an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding cassette (ABC) transporter which belonged to the multidrug resistant (MDR) class of P-glycoproteins (PGPs), and functioned as an efflux carrier in polar auxin transport.
• It is also unclear whether ZmPGP1 exists as a signal of selection during maize domestication and improvement.
• Natural Variation and Domestication Selection of ZmPGP1 Affects Plant Architecture and Yield-Related Traits in Maize.
• ZmPGP1, involved in the polar auxin transport, has been shown to be associated with plant height, leaf angle, yield traits, and root development in maize.
• ZmPGP1 may be selected in the domestication and improvement process, and significant variants could be used to develop functional markers to improve plant architecture and ear traits in maize.
