AP2 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsAP2 (CSA11G004440) on Camelina sativa chromosome 11 encodes a protein with an AP2/ERF DNA-binding domain and transcription corepressor activity, localizing to the nucleus, cytoplasm, and transcription regulator complexes. It is associated with regulation of seed development, endosperm development, starch biosynthesis, fatty acid elongation, wax anabolism, and gibberellic acid homeostasis. The gene is linked to floral organ abscission, seed abscission, sexual reproduction, meristem maintenance, and vascular tissue pattern formation. Traits connected to CsAP2 include seed mass, seed yield, flowering time, inflorescence architecture, jasmonic acid content, root morphology, and photoassimilate translocation. Related genes in other species link the family to floral organ identity, stem cell maintenance, somatic embryogenesis, floury endosperm, and seed quality traits.
