Mutated genes
Locus name	AT5G63110
Alias	HDA6
Organism	Arabidopsis thaliana
Description	RPD3-like histone deacetylase. HDA6 mutations specifically increase the expression of auxin-responsive transgenes, suggesting a role in transgene silencing.HDA6-RNAi plants displayed increased leaf longevity compared with the wild type. The expression of the senescence-associated genes, SAG12 and SEN4, was down-regulated in HDA6-RNAi plants. In addition,HDA6-RNAi plants displayed late-flowering.
