LP1 — Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare

Summary

HORVU.MOREX.R3.3HG0227360 (HvLP1) on barley chromosome 3H encodes a protein with a Plant_nsLTP domain and is annotated with lipid carrier, chitosan binding, lipid binding, histone H2AS1 kinase, chitin binding, transmembrane receptor protein kinase, calmodulin binding, calcium ion binding, kinase, protein kinase, protein homodimerization, identical protein binding, protein serine/threonine kinase, and ATP binding activities. The gene is associated with lipid transport, cuticle development, phospholipid transfer to membranes, and responses to chitin and bacterial molecules. HvLP1 has been linked to abscisic acid and jasmonic acid content, bacterial blight disease resistance, flowering time, leaf senescence, seed growth and development, protein content, and salt tolerance. It is also associated with seedling growth, cuticle permeability, gravitropism, freezing tolerance, disease susceptibility, root development, and shoot branching. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to drought recovery, yield traits, cold tolerance, nitrogen use efficiency, pathogen resistance, and embryo development.
