LE — Cucumis sativus
Summary
CsLE (CSA_7G435500) in cucumber encodes a gibberellin 3-beta-dioxygenase (EC 1.14.11.15), a member of the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase family. This gene is associated with hypocotyl growth and sex expression in cucumber. It is linked to harvest index, nitrate uptake, stomatal resistance, and chlorophyll content. The gene is also associated with response to red or far red light, abscission, stomatal closure, seed development, defense response to oomycetes, and other processes. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to starch degradation and seed coat formation, and to tuberization and tuber size.
