VH1 — Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare

Summary

HORVU.MOREX.R3.3HG0235070 (VH1, HvVH1) on barley chromosome 3H encodes a protein with leucine-rich repeat and serine/threonine kinase domains, characteristic of a receptor-like kinase. The gene is associated with numerous molecular functions including transaminase, methyltransferase, and xylanase activities, and is linked to biological processes such as anthocyanin and flavonol metabolism, glyoxylate cycle, and RuBisCO assembly. VH1 is associated with traits including seed yield, harvest index, drought and herbicide sensitivity, photosynthetic ability, leaf angle, and root development. Related genes in other species are linked to cotyledon vein patterning, heat tolerance, and biomass accumulation.
