GAZ — Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

Summary

BoGAZ (GAZ, BoGAL2, BoGAL1) on cauliflower chromosome 7 encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor and localises to the nucleus. It is associated with regulation of DNA-templated transcription, root radial pattern formation, response to salt, and salinity response. The gene is linked to the trait SALTTL and to phenotypes including galactose metabolism and short root, reduced aerial growth, serrated asymmetric leaves, and fasciated stem. Related genes in other species link the family to phosphate starvation response and insect resistance, while sequence similarity connects the gene to photochemical quenching and insect damage response traits.
