NAC — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DCAR_005363, designated DcNAC on carrot chromosome 2, encodes a NAC-domain transcription factor with DNA-binding and transcription activator activity. The gene is associated with regulation of root hair elongation, leaf senescence, abscisic acid homeostasis, photomorphogenesis, hypoxia response, and defence against fungi. It is linked to traits including leaf senescence, root thickness, seedling growth, photosynthetic rate, respiration rate, ethylene sensitivity, brassinosteroid content, and disease tolerance. The product localises to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Related genes in other species are linked to drought tolerance, salt stress sensitivity, pathogen resistance, thermomemory, and abscisic acid and jasmonic acid signalling.
