BP — Lactuca sativa
Summary
LsBP (LSAT_V11C600338850) on chromosome 6 of garden lettuce encodes a protein containing KNOX1, KNOX2, ELK and homeobox domains, and is annotated with DNA-binding transcription factor activity, chromatin binding and miRNA binding. The gene is associated with shoot meristem maintenance, organ boundary specification, regulation of gibberellin biosynthesis, and negative regulation of auxin signaling. It has been linked to numerous agronomic traits including leaf morphology, plant size, seed yield, seed size, flowering time, phyllotaxy, inflorescence development, and biotic stress tolerance. Localisation evidence places the product in the nucleus, cytoplasm, plasmodesmata and plastid. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to internode elongation, pedicel development, leaf size, and replum development.
