MLO — Cicer arietinum
Summary
LOC101496809, designated CaMLO, encodes a calmodulin-binding protein belonging to the MLO family. The gene is associated with pollen tube reception, cell wall biogenesis, secondary metabolism, and defense response, and its product localizes to the endomembrane system, membrane, mitochondria, plasmalemma, and cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to fertilization, female gametophytic defects, reduced fertility, pollen tube overgrowth, and calcium signaling. Associations with climatic adaptation traits (clim-bio4, clim-gs8, clim-aet12, clim-aet1) and other miscellaneous traits have also been noted.
