MLO — Cucumis sativus
Summary
CSA_5G631480, also known as MLO, MLO11, MLO14, CsMLO, CsMLO14, or CsMLO11 in cucumber (Cucumis sativus) on chromosome 5, encodes a calmodulin-binding protein localized to the membrane, mitochondria, and nucleus. The gene is associated with cell wall thickening, immune and defense responses, calcium and ABA signaling, signal transduction, and protein synthesis. It has been linked to root thigmomorphogenesis. Related genes in other species connect it to powdery mildew resistance in a Cucumis/Camelina species, bacterial wilt resistance in tomato, and wheat powdery mildew disease response, as well as aberrant root curling on solid surfaces.
