- Information
- Symbol: OsZAS2
- MSU: None

- ZAXINONE SYNTHASE 2 regulates growth and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in rice., 2022, Plant Physiol.
-
Genbank accession number
- Key message
- Oszas2 mutants contained lower zaxinone content in roots and exhibited reduced root and shoot biomass, fewer tillers, and higher strigolactone (SL) levels
- Exogenous zaxinone application repressed SL biosynthesis and partially rescued the growth retardation of the Oszas2 mutant
- OsZAS2 was predominantly localized in plastids and mainly expressed under phosphate starvation
- Connection
- OsZAS, OsZAS2, ZAXINONE SYNTHASE 2 regulates growth and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in rice., The rice genome encodes three OsZAS homologs, called here OsZAS1b, OsZAS1c, and OsZAS2, with unknown functions
- OsZAS, OsZAS2, ZAXINONE SYNTHASE 2 regulates growth and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in rice., In conclusion, OsZAS2 is a zaxinone-forming enzyme that, similar to the previously reported OsZAS, determines rice growth, architecture, and SL content, and is required for optimal mycorrhization
