TPS5 — Cucumis sativus
Summary
CmTPS5 (CSA_3G009420) on cucumber chromosome 3 encodes a protein with trehalose-phosphatase activity, transglucosylase activity, and DNA-binding transcription factor activity. The gene is associated with trehalose (mycose) biosynthesis, sucrose metabolism, and responses to heat, abscisic acid, ethylene, and hypoxia. It has been linked to fruit ripening, yield, sugar content, photosynthetic rate, and temperature stress response. Associations with spider mite and aphid resistance, flowering time, starch accumulation, and carbon allocation have been noted. The gene is also connected to stomatal development, water-use efficiency, seed germination, and defense responses to Botrytis cinerea and Pseudomonas syringae. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to trehalose-6-phosphate biosynthesis, heat tolerance, bacterial wilt resistance, and volatile terpene emission.
