FHL — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C07F1530 (symbol AoFHL) on asparagus chromosome 7 encodes a protein containing a FHY1 domain and is annotated with nuclear import signal receptor activity, far-red and red/far-red light photoreceptor activity, phosphorelay sensor kinase activity, histidine kinase activity, protein kinase activity, DNA-binding transcription factor activity, and transcriptional co-regulator activity. The gene is associated with responses to far-red, red, and blue light signaling pathways, detection of visible light, regulation of salinity response, and protein catabolic processes in the vacuole. It is linked to traits including grain yield, panicle number, flower diameter, photoperiod-sensitive flowering time, photosynthetic ability, anthocyanin content, seed dormancy, leaf angle, and plant stress response. Phenotypic associations include elongated hypocotyl in far-red light, phytochrome A nuclear accumulation, and altered germination and de-etiolation responses.
