AFB1 — Cucumis melo
Summary
MELO3C014799.2, also known as CmAFB1, encodes a protein with auxin receptor activity, NEDD8 transferase activity, and auxin binding, and belongs to the F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein families. In melon, this gene is associated with fruit ripening, and its product localizes to the SCF complex and nuclear SCF complex. The gene is linked to numerous biological processes including auxin signalling, regulation of lateral root development, response to cyclopentenone, cellular response to nitrate, and regulation of defense response by callose deposition. Associations with traits include seedling cotyledon size, biomass yield, seed yield, phototropism, temperature stress response, and aluminum response. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to auxin resistance, lateral root formation, and inflorescence architecture.
