DFR1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoDFR1 (BOLC102_C09P063140.1) on cabbage chromosome 9 encodes the protein CAN6864470.1. The gene is associated with anthocyanin anabolism and virus-induced PTGS, and its product has been linked to both mitochondrial and nuclear localisation. BoDFR1 is connected to leaf colour and has been associated with drought tolerance, freezing tolerance, and decreased salt tolerance and increased cold tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to sensitivity to drought and cold stress, as well as embryo lethality, and sequence similarity connections also associate the family with salt and low-temperature stress responses.
