| 5.2.1.12 | additional information | based on the single-nucleotide polymorphism G2674A in the coding sequence and a 46-bp InDel in 3'-UTR, three haplotypes of the MIT1 gene are constructed. Accessions of Hap2 has significantly more tillers and lower MIT1 expression than the other two haplotypes. The increased tiller phenotype is caused by the strigolactone (SL) deficiency. MIT1 controls tiller number through the SL pathway MIT1 is located upstream of the SL biosynthesis and signaling | Oryza sativa Japonica Group |

| 5.2.1.12 | malfunction | rice mit1 mutant produces moderately increased tiller number with mildly reduced stature. Dark-grown mit1 plants accumulate higher levels of 9,15,9'-tri-cis-zeta-carotene, the substrate of ZISO, due to its inability to convert into 9,9'-di-cis-zeta-carotene. Even in tissues of the light-grown mit1 mutant, the contents of several carotenoids are also reduced. MIT1 deficiency leads to reduced carotenoid biosynthesis. Levels of epi-5DS, a native strigolactone (SL) in rice, are significantly lower in root exudates of mit1 seedlings than in the wild-type. The enhanced tiller bud outgrowth and mesocotyl elongation of mit1 are inhibited by application of the synthetic SL analogue GR24. SL-deficient rice mutants also exhibit accelerated mesocotyl elongation in dark-grown seedlings | Oryza sativa Japonica Group |
| 5.2.1.12 | physiological function | 15-cis-zeta-carotene isomerase (Z-ISO) is a key enzyme located in chloroplast membranes, where it independently catalyzes isomerization from 9,15,9'-tri-cis-zeta-carotene to 9,9'-di-cis-zeta-carotene. Its function can also be partially compensated by light. Map-based cloning reveals that gene MIT1 encodes Z-ISO in the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway | Oryza sativa Japonica Group |
