GNC — Brassica juncea

Summary

BjGNC (BJUA02G31430S) on chromosome A02 of Indian mustard encodes a GATA transcription factor of the GAT21-like family, containing ZnF_GATA and ZnF_NHR/GATA domains, with sequence-specific DNA binding and transcription regulatory activity. The gene is associated with regulation of chlorophyll biosynthesis, chloroplast elongation, and carbohydrate utilization, as well as responses to cytokinin, nitrogen compounds, and glucose-mediated signaling. It is linked to floral organ development, the timing of vegetative-to-reproductive phase transition, seed development and germination, and plant organ senescence. Associations with plant height, flowering time, root morphology, and germination rate have been noted. Related genes in other species are linked to chloroplast development, leaf senescence, starch synthesis, and flowering time regulation.
