DCAR_019509 — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DcBEH1 (DCAR_019509) on carrot chromosome 5 encodes a protein with a BZR domain and a BES1_N domain, and is annotated with transcription regulator activity, sequence-specific DNA binding, and multiple acyltransferase and histone-modifying enzyme functions. The gene is associated with BZR/BES-regulated transcription and phosphorylation-dependent nuclear-cytosolic shuttling. It is linked to positive regulation of ethylene biosynthesis, regulation of vernalization response, jasmonic acid/ethylene-dependent systemic resistance, sterol breakdown, and phosphatidylethanolamine anabolism. Associations include root system morphology, fruit set and quality, total soluble sugar content, leaf area, inflorescence length, seed and carpel morphology, brassinosteroid content, and responses to light quality, nitrogen, sulfur, and cold. The gene is also associated with photosynthesis, chilling tolerance, flowering time, pollen viability, and cadmium resistance.
