Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb403750
• Gene Symbol: ZmSOC1ZmMADS1
• Gene Name: SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS 1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Transcriptome analysis in the leaves of 34-day old plants revealed 58 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) responding to the expression of the ZmSOC1, of which the upregulated FRUITFULL MADS-box gene, as well as the transcription factor VASCULAR PLANT ONE-ZINC FINGER1, contributed to the promoted flowering.
• Expression of a maize SOC1 gene enhances soybean yield potential through modulating plant growth and flowering.
• We transformed the ZmSOC1 into soybean to examine the possible impact of a major MADS-box gene on soybean plant growth and flowering.
• This consistency suggested that expression of the ZmSOC1 was able to enhance reproductive production and reduce plant height.
• Effect of ZmSOC1 expression on seed quality.
• Flowering Time-Regulated Genes in Maize Include the Transcription Factor ZmMADS1.
• ZmMADS1 represents a positive FTi regulator that shares an evolutionarily conserved function with SOC1 and may now serve as an ideal stating point to study the integration and variation of FTi pathways also in maize.
