ARF17 — Brassica juncea

Summary

BjARF17 (BJUB06G15330S) on chromosome B06 of Indian mustard encodes an auxin response factor (ARF) family transcription factor with a B3 DNA-binding domain and a pseudobarrel DNA-binding fold. It exhibits transcription corepressor activity and binds DNA, cis-regulatory regions, and identical proteins. The gene is associated with positive regulation of anther dehiscence, pollen wall assembly, cell wall callose deposition, and pattern specification. It is linked to adventitious root development, lateral root formation, root cap development, callus formation, and gibberellic acid homeostasis. Associations also include auxin and jasmonic acid signaling, leaf and vascular tissue development, and embryo shoot apical meristem specification. The protein localizes to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Related genes in other species are linked to callose synthesis, adventitious root initiation, and Fusarium wilt resistance.
