BVRB_2G026600 — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

Bv30G (BVRB_2G026600) on sugar beet chromosome 2 encodes a 14-3-3 domain-containing protein. The gene is associated with RISC complex binding and numerous enzyme activities including glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, xylose isomerase, and fumarate hydratase activities. It is linked to positive regulation of miRNA metabolic processes, activation of syringal lignin anabolism, fumarate metabolism, and the transition from vegetative to reproductive shoot apical meristem. Associations include flowering under drought stress, inflorescence development, and severe drought response. The gene is associated with traits such as ferulic acid content, starch grain size, zinc content, fruit yield, hexose content, and spot blotch response. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to iron deficiency response, tuber sprouting, axillary bud outgrowth, miRNA stability, and antiviral immunity.
