MLO — Cucumis sativus
Summary
CSA_4G637780, designated MLO (also known as MLO11, MLO14, CsMLO, CsMLO14, and CsMLO11) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus) on chromosome 4, encodes a calmodulin-binding protein localised to the membrane, mitochondria, and nucleus. This gene is associated with cell wall thickening, immune and defense responses, signal transduction, calcium signaling, and ABA signaling. It has been connected to wheat powdery mildew disease response and root thigmomorphogenesis. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to powdery mildew resistance, bacterial wilt resistance, and light-dependent aberrant root curling on solid surfaces.
