Bioactivity | EAD1 TFA is an aluminum-activated malate transporter with activity in regulating corn ear development. EAD1 TFA is preferentially expressed in the xylem of immature ears and localized across the plasma membrane. The EAD1 TFA transports malic acid in the apical part of developing inflorescences, and its deletion results in reduced malic acid content in this part. The overexpression of EAD1 TFA was significantly positively correlated with ear length and the number of kernels per row. EAD1 TFA serves as a potential genetic resource to help improve grain yield in maize[1]. |
