RLK — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsRLK (CSA11G103630) on Camelina sativa chromosome 11 encodes a transmembrane receptor protein kinase with serine/threonine kinase activity, ATP binding, and signaling receptor activity, belonging to the PRK1-6/SRF4-like and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain families. This gene is associated with the regulation of floral meristem size, specification of floral organ number, floral organ development, and post-embryonic plant organ development. It is also linked to cold acclimation, stomatal complex morphogenesis, regulation of stomatal development, gametophyte development, embryo sac development, plant ovule development, hormone-mediated signaling, response to other organisms, and activation of salinity response. The encoded protein localizes to the plasma membrane and extracellular region. Related genes in other species are linked to low nitrogen stress tolerance, drought tolerance, plant height, root length, stem elongation, and stomatal resistance.
