Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • ZmRAVL1 regulates brd1 (brassinosteroid C-6 oxidase1), which underlies UPA1, altering endogenous brassinosteroid content and leaf angle.
  • ZmRAVL1 functions as a positive regulator of maize leaf angle.
  • ZmRAVL1 can generate upright leaf architecture for increased planting density.
  • Upright Plant Architecture2 regulates leaf angle through ZmRAVL1.
  • UPA2 exhibits differential binding by DRL1 (DROOPING LEAF1), and DRL1 physically interacts with LG1 (LIGULELESS1) and represses LG1 activation of ZmRAVL1.
  • CRISPR/Cas9 knockout plants and ZmRAVL1 overexpression plants verified that ZmRAVL1 acts as a positive regulator of leaf angle in maize.
  • These results convincingly demonstrate that both UPA2 and ZmRAVL1 can serve as promising targets for genetic improvement of leaf angle and upright plant architecture in future maize breeding.
