NF-YB7 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_002G273800, designated PvNF-YB7 on chromosome 2 of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor with RNA polymerase II-specific activity, belonging to the NF-YB/HAP3 family and containing a histone-fold domain. The gene is associated with the CCAAT-binding factor complex and localizes to the nucleus, nucleolus, plastid, and cytosol. PvNF-YB7 is associated with regulation of long-day photoperiodism and flowering, flower development, seed germination, nodulation, ABA and GA signaling, stomatal complex patterning and development, photomorphogenesis, and responses to heat and thirst. It has been linked to agronomic traits including flowering time, photoperiod-sensitive flowering, seed protein content, starch content, leaf chlorosis, seed dormancy, root morphology, and disease tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to pathogen resistance, disease resistance, and flowering time.
