RBOHF — Arabidopsis thaliana

Summary

AT1G64060 (RBOHF) encodes a respiratory burst oxidase homolog, a NADPH oxidase family member with oxidoreductase activity acting on NAD(P)H with oxygen as acceptor, and also annotated with peroxidase, kinase and calcium ion binding activities. In Arabidopsis thaliana, RBOHF is associated with the respiratory burst involved in defense response, detection of insects, egg deposition, callose deposition, immune response-regulating signaling, response to paraquat and UV-A, glucosinolate breakdown, protein oxidation, and regulation of NAD metabolism. It is linked to traits including grain yield, seed yield, biomass yield, bacterial blight disease resistance, aphid response, nematode damage response, leaf rolling, specific leaf area, leaf water potential, root hair length, phototropism, aluminum response, phosphorus uptake, and magnesium sensitivity. The gene is also associated with root hair elongation, drought tolerance, cold tolerance, cadmium tolerance, and reactive oxygen species homeostasis.
