HRT — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_008G031200, designated PvHRT on chromosome 8 of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), encodes a protein with domains including RX-like_CC, Rx_N, WHD_DRP, Disease_R_plants, Apaf_helical, NB-ARC, WH-like_DNA-bd_sf, LRR_R13L4/SHOC2-like, LRR_dom_sf, and P-loop_NTPase, and is annotated with lipase, ubiquitin ligase, DNA-binding transcription factor, and nucleotide-binding activities. The gene is associated with defence responses to Gram-negative bacteria, oomycetes, and other organisms, systemic acquired resistance via salicylic acid signalling, and responses to singlet oxygen, hypoxia, and ER stress. It is linked to calcium ion homeostasis, anthocyanin and triterpenoid metabolism, leaf abscission, and photoperiodic flowering. Associations with agronomic traits include fruit quality, total soluble sugar content, carotenoid content, biomass yield, seed yield, water use efficiency, and responses to viral disease, powdery mildew, and water stress. Related genes in other species are linked to victorin sensitivity and programmed cell death.
