BAD1 — Sorghum bicolor

Summary

SORBI_3003G203500 (BAD1) on sorghum chromosome 3 encodes an aldehyde dehydrogenase family protein with multiple NAD(P)+-dependent activities, including succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase, coniferyl-aldehyde dehydrogenase and phenylacetaldehyde dehydrogenase activity. The gene is associated with GABA catabolism and the GABA shunt, cellular detoxification of aldehydes, and responses to anoxia, water, desiccation, insects, and oxidative stress. It has been linked to leaf water potential, grain filling period, photosynthetic rate, disease tolerance, root morphology, and plant growth and development traits. The gene product localises to mitochondria, vacuoles, the apoplast, chloroplast stroma, endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to grain fragrance, submergence tolerance, abiotic stress tolerance, male sterility, and grain size.
