CLA — Daucus carota subsp. sativus
Summary
DCAR_030576 (CLA, also known as DXS-3) encodes a 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase. This carrot gene on chromosome 9 is associated with the regulation of isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis via the mevalonate-independent pathway, isoprenoid anabolism, and thiamine and pyridoxal 5′-phosphate biosynthesis. It is linked to chloroplast development, photosynthetic rate, shoot system growth, seed protein content, seed size and yield, embryo development, and responses to high temperature and abiotic stress. The gene is also associated with plastid differentiation, volatile organic compound synthesis, defense responses, and drought response. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to carotenoid content, fruit color, plant height, tuber dormancy, and herbivore resistance.
