BGH2 — Daucus carota subsp. sativus
Summary
DcBGH2 (DCAR_032551) on carrot chromosome 5 encodes a protein with sequestering activity. This gene is associated with the regulation of anthocyanin metabolism, upregulation of chlorophyll anabolism, pigment accumulation, carotenoid anabolism, de-etiolation, photomorphogenesis, and defense response. It has been connected to root color and carotenoid content, as well as photosynthetic gene expression, chloroplast development, and increased heat sensitivity. Related genes in other species are linked to chloroplast development traits, chlorophyll content, and drought tolerance.
