BAD1 — Sorghum bicolor
Summary
SORBI_3007G130800 (BAD1) on sorghum chromosome 7 encodes an aldehyde dehydrogenase family protein with multiple NAD(P)-dependent activities, including succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase, betaine-aldehyde dehydrogenase, and coniferyl-aldehyde dehydrogenase. The gene is associated with GABA catabolism and the GABA shunt, cellular aldehyde detoxification, and responses to anoxia, desiccation, water, and insects. It is linked to leaf water potential, photosynthetic rate, grain filling period, disease tolerance, root morphology, and plant growth and development traits. The product localizes to mitochondria, vacuoles, chloroplast stroma, and the apoplast. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to abiotic stress tolerance, including salt, drought, heat, and osmotic stress, as well as to grain fragrance, submergence tolerance, and male reproductive development.
