FLP — Brachypodium distachyon

Summary

BdFLP (BRADI_1G20586V3) on chromosome 1 of Brachypodium distachyon encodes a protein with MYB and Myb domains, and is annotated as having RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding, DNA-binding transcription factor activity (RNA polymerase II-specific), sequence-specific DNA binding, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, DNA binding transcription factor activity, DNA binding, and protein binding. The gene is associated with stomatal complex formation, guard mother cell division, regulation of stomatal complex patterning, plant epidermis development, leaf pavement cell development, response to lipid, response to hormone, response to gravity, regulation of cell wall organization or biogenesis, regulation of cell cycle G1/S phase transition, regulation of secondary metabolism, regulation of phenylpropanoid metabolism, shikimate metabolism, fatty alcohol anabolism, alcohol anabolism, multicellular organismal water homeostasis, upregulation of lateral root development, and floral organ senescence. It is also associated with water use efficiency, nitrogen content, drought stress, lateral root development, guard cell identity, numerous stomatal clusters with arrested guard cells, severe stomatal development defects with arrested guard cells, and root gravitropism. Related genes in other species link the family to stomatal development, megasporogenesis, stress responses, drought tolerance, salt tolerance, grain size, and lignin content.
