LOB — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C07F3800 (AoLOB) on asparagus chromosome 7 encodes a LOB domain-containing protein with DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, DNA-binding transcription activator activity, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, protein homodimerization activity, identical protein binding, DNA binding, DNA binding transcription factor activity, and protein binding. It is associated with specification of symmetry, proximodistal axis specification, proximal/distal pattern formation, organ boundary specification between lateral organs and the meristem, adaxial/abaxial axis specification, upregulation of shade avoidance, downregulation of innate immune response, leaf formation, regulation of innate immune response, regulation of phenylpropanoid metabolism, petal development, polarity specification of adaxial/abaxial axis, adventitious root development, asymmetric cell division, plant organ development, response to virus, regulation of ROS metabolic process, and hormone mediated signalling. The gene is linked to leaf flexibility, flower abscission zone morphology, pedicel length, sepal morphology, leaf margin morphology, leaf vein morphology, gibberellin biosynthesis, petal morphology, shoot meristem development, fruit growth and development, photoperiod-sensitive flowering time, meristem tissue development, yield, cotyledon morphology, shoot apical meristem development, light intensity response, floral organ development, brassinosteroid sensitivity, cell cycle, leaf shape, leaf morphology, abiotic plant stress response, anthocyanin content, leaf composition, organ identity, hypocot
