CYC — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT4G043560 (CYC, also known as PsTCP1) on garden pea chromosome 4LG4 encodes a TCP family transcription factor containing a CYC/TB1_R domain and functions as a transcription coactivator with sequence-specific DNA binding activity. This gene is associated with the determination of dorsoventral asymmetry, specification of symmetry, regulation of shoot development, secondary shoot formation, and gibberellic acid homeostasis. It is linked to plant male sterility, pollen fertility, seed set percent, flowering time, drought tolerance, salt tolerance, shoot system elongation, stem elongation, whole plant size, leaf morphology, trichome morphology, anthocyanin content, and seed growth and development. The gene is also connected to anther development, microsporocyte differentiation, ovule development, and adaxial-abaxial polarity. Related genes in other species are linked to leaf elongation, brassinosteroid content, plant growth, and heat stress memory.
