CCT — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_07G070700V4, also known as GmCCT, encodes a Mediator complex subunit Med12, a transcriptional co-regulator localised to the nucleus. In soybean, this gene is associated with photoperiodism and flowering, seed development, and the temporal regulation of development. It has also been linked to systemic acquired resistance, salicylic acid accumulation, leaf morphology, root hair development, light-induced gene expression, and the juvenile-to-adult transition and vegetative phase change. Associations with agronomic traits include seed weight, protein content, and zinc concentration. Related genes in other species are linked to flowering time and root architecture.
