HAM1 — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_0092S0100 (HAM1) in barrel medic encodes a GRAS family transcription factor with promoter-specific chromatin binding, sequence-specific DNA binding, and protein homodimerization activity. It is associated with stomium development, posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression, axillary shoot meristem initiation, procambium histogenesis, response to nutrient, upregulation of stem cell maintenance, maintenance of shoot apical meristem identity, regulation of protein breakdown, cell morphogenesis, root hair tip growth, stem cell population maintenance, developmental process, phosphate ion detection, regulation of seed dormancy process, meiotic cytokinesis, phloem or xylem histogenesis, morphogenesis, and hyperosmotic salinity response. The gene is linked to traits including megasporocyte development, floral organ size, inflorescence development, axillary bud morphology, gynoecium development, gibberellin biosynthesis, petal morphology, shoot system elongation rate, shoot meristem development, plant male sterility, stamen morphology, leaf position, anther morphology, root oxidative activity, meristem tissue development, gibberellic acid sensitivity, callus induction, cell growth and development, floral organ identity, cytokinin sensitivity, vegetative growth time, auxin content, root hair length, flower development, trichome morphology, meristem identity, floral organ development, cell cycle, auxin sensitivity, and plant stress response. Related genes in other species are linked to shoot and root meristem
