MLO — Cicer arietinum
Summary
LOC140918697, designated CaMLO, encodes a member of the MLO protein family and is annotated with calmodulin-binding activity. In chickpea, this gene is associated with pollen tube reception, cell wall biogenesis, secondary metabolism, and defense response. The encoded protein localizes to the endomembrane system, membrane, mitochondria, plasmalemma, and cytoplasm. Studies of related MLO genes in other species link the family to fertilization, female gametophytic defects, reduced fertility, pollen tube overgrowth, and calcium signaling.
