GA2OX1 — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LsGA2OX1 (GA2OX1) on chromosome 7 of garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa) encodes a 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase with gibberellin 2-oxidase activity, a member of the DIOX_N and IPNS-like superfamily. This gene is associated with gibberellin biosynthesis and catabolism, seed germination, responses to red and far-red light, hypoxia, and fungal molecules, and is linked to the cytoplasm. Observed associations include plant height, lateral branching, hypocotyl elongation and growth, root growth, seed dormancy, shade avoidance suppression, anthocyanin accumulation, parthenocarpic fruit development, fruit set, and photosynthetic rate. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to tuberization, chilling and drought tolerance, fruit ripening, and seed development.
