SPS — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BvSPS (BVRB_2G030670) on sugar beet chromosome 2 encodes a protein with sucrose-phosphate synthase activity, sucrose-phosphate phosphatase activity, sucrose synthase activity, protein kinase binding, phosphatase activity, protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity, transglycosidase activity, kinase binding, calcium ion binding, and protein binding. The gene is associated with nectar secretion, sucrose anabolism, secondary growth, sucrose breakdown, cell development, pollen wall assembly, starch breakdown, protein dephosphorylation, regulation of abscisic acid-mediated signaling, sucrose metabolism, downregulation of abscisic acid-mediated signaling, NO storage, regulation of stomatal movement, homeostasis, proteolysis, and cell division. It is linked to traits including sucrose synthase activity, vegetative vigor, nitrogen content, shoot growth angle, relative growth rate, respiration rate, leaf position, wheat powdery mildew disease response, root phototropism response, shoot axis branching, seed yield, brassinosteroid sensitivity, plant stress response, photosynthetic rate, root meristem development, stomatal complex closure time, stomatal resistance, anthocyanin content, leaf composition, hypocotyl morphology, low temperature stress response, root development, stomatal opening, root thickness, seed growth and development, oxidative stress response, flowering time, disease tolerance, and salt tolerance. The protein localizes to the protein serine/threonine phosphatase complex, endoplasmic reticulum, plasmodesma, cytosol, plasmal
