D3 — Zea mays
Summary
ZM00001EB270950, designated D3 (also known as ZmD3, ORE9, PPS, ZmORE9, ZmMAX2, MAX2), encodes an F-box and leucine-rich repeat-containing protein with transcription regulator activity and sequence-specific DNA binding. This maize gene on chromosome 6 is associated with strigolactone signaling, axillary bud dormancy, and suppression of tillering, as well as gibberellin and abscisic acid biosynthesis. It has been linked to regulation of shoot morphogenesis, leaf senescence, de-etiolation, auxin polar transport, circadian rhythm, and cuticle development. D3 is associated with traits including branching, tiller number, seed viability, carotenoid content, photoperiod-sensitive flowering time, and root oxidative activity. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to strigolactone perception, axillary branching, drought resistance, and root hair elongation.
