PSAT1G188560 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT1G188560, also known as PsCOP1, encodes a non-specific serine/threonine protein kinase on garden pea chromosome 1LG6. The product is associated with phytochrome binding and regulation of the phytochrome signaling pathway, as well as responses to red or far-red light and light detection. It has been connected to leaf formation, photosynthesis upregulation, lateral root development, and brassinosteroid and cytokinin anabolism. The gene is linked to traits including grain yield, plant growth hormone response, chlorophyll ratio, leaf area, flower diameter, root system morphology, and responses to UV-A light, far-red light, copper, glyphosate, and nitrogen. It is also associated with seed longevity, salinity stress tolerance, seed development, and cell wall integrity. Related genes in other species are linked to light-regulated gene expression.
