MLO — Cucumis melo
Summary
MELO3C019435.2 (CmMLO, also known as CmMLO4) on melon chromosome 7 encodes an MLO protein that binds calmodulin and is localized to the membrane and mitochondria. This gene is associated with defense response and mating processes. CmMLO has been linked to root thigmomorphogenesis and root gravity response. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to bacterial wilt susceptibility and aberrant root curling on solid surfaces in a light-dependent manner.
