CBF1 — Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare

Summary

HORVU.MOREX.R3.2HG0135320 (HvCBF1) on barley chromosome 2H encodes a DRE1A-I family DNA-binding transcription factor. The protein localises to the nucleus and is associated with cold acclimation, vernalisation response, response to cold and salt, signal transduction, embryogenesis, and DNA-dependent transcription. HvCBF1 has been connected to winter survival, cold and drought tolerance, salinity tolerance, and root dry weight. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to seasonality, grain yield, relative yield, spikelet fertility, germination rate, root length, chlorophyll content, and quantum yield.
