FUS3 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsFUS3 (CSA06G006590) on Camelina sativa chromosome 6 encodes a B3 DNA-binding domain transcription factor of the LEC2-like family, with annotated DNA binding transcription factor activity and protein kinase activity. The gene is associated with negative regulation of gibberellin biosynthesis, positive regulation of abscisic acid anabolism, regulation of embryonic development, seed dormancy, and vegetative phase change. It has been connected to seed yield, seed weight, drought tolerance, submergence tolerance, high temperature stress response, oxidative stress response, flowering time, leaf senescence, root development, and plant morphology traits. Additional associations include starch metabolism, sugar-mediated signaling, response to glucose and hypoxia, xylem development, primary root development, and regulation of leaf senescence. The gene is linked to the nuclear ubiquitin ligase complex, Golgi complex, cytosol, and nucleus.
