UVR8 — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LsUVR8, encoded by the garden lettuce gene LSAT_V11C600307630 on chromosome 6, belongs to the RCC1/BLIP-II domain family. In lettuce, the gene is associated with photomorphogenesis, pigmentation, and response to stress, and its product localises to the cytosol, Golgi complex, and plasmalemma. It has been linked to traits including shoot fresh weight, photosynthetic rate, stomatal resistance, and anthocyanin content. Related genes in other species are associated with plant height, seed maturation, and quantum yield.
