GLYMA_08G175200V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_08G175200v4 on soybean chromosome 8 encodes a protein with a Tau-like domain and glutathione transferase activity. The gene is associated with a wide range of biological processes, including glutathione anabolism, the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, hormone metabolism, pigment accumulation, and responses to stimuli. It has been linked to numerous agronomically important traits, including seed weight, seed size, seed coat color, seed maturation, germination rate, biomass yield, photosynthetic rate, water use efficiency, root and shoot fresh and dry weight, leaf relative water content, leaf chlorosis, proline content, anthocyanin and flavonoid content, abscisic acid content, and salt response. The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm. Related genes in other species are linked to glutathione S-transferase activity.
