EDS5 — Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

Summary

BoEDS5 (BOLND125_C01P000360.1) on cauliflower chromosome 1 encodes a MATE family transporter with antiporter and xenobiotic transmembrane transporter activity, localised to the chloroplast envelope and plastid. The gene is associated with salicylic acid anabolism, systemic acquired resistance, innate immunity, defence response to bacteria, response to nematode, response to salicylate, membrane transport, and downregulation of defense response. It is linked to nonhost resistance, powdery mildew resistance, disease resistance, disease susceptibility, salicylic acid biosynthesis, salicylic acid signaling, innate immune response, pathogen defense, resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus, cold tolerance, age-related resistance, resistance to turnip crinkle virus, immunity, effector-triggered immunity, pathogen resistance, salicylic acid metabolism, powdery mildew susceptibility, virus resistance, Botrytis cinerea resistance, salicylic acid defense response, and enhanced disease susceptibility to bacterial pathogens. Related genes in other species are associated with salicylic acid accumulation, nonhost resistance to Colletotrichum and Xanthomonas, and induced systemic resistance in Verticillium.
