GRP — Cucumis sativus

Summary

CSA_7G037600 (GRP) on cucumber chromosome 7 encodes a glycine-rich protein (GRP) belonging to the GRP family. In cucumber, this gene is associated with sex determination, flower morphogenesis, response to gravity, auxin transport, phloem transport, secretion, cell wall organization, defense response, hormone anabolism, morphogenesis, and homeostasis. Related genes in other species encode cell wall glycine-rich proteins, though this function is not established for this cucumber gene.
