ATY13 — Zea mays
Summary
ZmATY13 (also known as ZmMYB60, ZmMYB31, and ZmMYB96) on maize chromosome 1 encodes a plant Myb transcription factor with sequence-specific DNA-binding and transcription regulator activity. It is associated with pigment biosynthetic processes, including phlobaphene biosynthesis and pigment accumulation in tissues, as well as the upregulation of phytoalexin and wax biosynthesis. The gene has been linked to responses to water, UV protection, brassinosteroid signaling, and lignin regulation. Associations with agronomic traits include drought response, freezing tolerance, seed oil accumulation, cuticular wax deposition, stomatal regulation, and root development. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to defense responses, abscisic acid signaling, and cuticle formation.
