MYB10 — Glycine max

Summary

GmMYB10 (GLYMA_15G259400V4) encodes a Myb-domain transcription factor with chromatin binding, sequence-specific DNA binding, and protein dimerization activity, localizing to the nucleus. In soybean, this gene is associated with the regulation of proanthocyanidin, flavonoid, and isoflavonoid biosynthesis, as well as responses to metal stress including nickel, zinc, and cadmium detoxification. It is linked to sulfur metabolism, induced systemic resistance, ethene mediated signaling pathway, seed coat development, trichome differentiation, and dehiscence. Associations with agronomic traits include seed size, seed dormancy, flowering time, leaf size, chlorophyll content, root length and thickness, petiole length, transpiration rate, and vegetative growth time. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to iron homeostasis, induced systemic resistance, lignin content, and root meristem maintenance.
