DARMORV10_A10P27400.1 — Brassica napus

Summary

DARMORV10_A10P27400.1 on chromosome A10 of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) encodes a MADS-box transcription factor, containing MADS-box and K-box domains, with RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor activity and protein dimerization activity. It is localized to the nucleus. This gene is associated with floral organ development, carpel development, petal morphogenesis, floral meristem determinacy, and organ identity. It has also been connected to vernalization response, photoperiodism, cold acclimation, and memory. Associations with agronomic traits include plant height, seed weight, biomass yield, heterosis, and phosphorus, potassium, and molybdenum content. Additionally, it is linked to anthocyanin content, glucosinolate metabolism, lipid metabolism, sucrose transport, and low temperature stress response. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to floral development.
