LMI2 — Asparagus officinalis
Summary
A4U43_C04F8550 (LMI2, also known as AoMYB5, AoMYB17, or AoMYB39) on asparagus chromosome 4 encodes a MYB transcription factor with DNA-binding, chromatin-binding, and protein homodimerization activity, localizing to the nucleus. This gene is associated with the maintenance of inflorescence meristem identity, regulation of flower development, anthocyanin and lignin anabolism, the shikimate pathway, green leaf volatile biosynthesis, gibberellic acid signaling, circadian rhythm, and responses to wounding and cold. It is linked to traits including pedicel length, flower and inflorescence morphology, axillary bud development, gynoecium development, male sterility, anthocyanin content, and flowering time. Related genes in other species are linked to seed germination, reproductive development, anther trichome development, and benzaldehyde accumulation.
