ERD4 — Brassica juncea

Summary

BJUA03G32070S (ERD4, BjOSCA1.7) on Indian mustard chromosome A03 encodes a calcium-activated cation channel belonging to the CSC1/OSCA1-like family. The gene is associated with seed germination, response to thirst, and localisation to the chloroplast membrane, plasmalemma, and extracellular space. It is associated with leaf number and drought tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to metabolite content and iron concentration traits.
