SAUR55 — Cucumis melo

Summary

MELO3C002378.2, also known as CmSAUR55 or SAUR55, encodes a member of the SAUR (Small Auxin-Up RNA) family of proteins on melon chromosome 13. The gene is associated with hormone metabolism, specifically auxin response and signal transduction, as well as photosynthesis (GO:0015979) and the chloroplast (GO:0009507). It has been linked to stem angle and aluminum tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species connect this family to aluminum response traits.
