SORBI_3007G226100 — Sorghum bicolor

Summary

SORBI_3007G226100, also known as SbGRF1, encodes a 14-3-3 domain-containing protein. In sorghum, this gene is associated with aphid resistance. It has been linked to numerous processes including hormone signaling, growth and developmental processes, regulation of seed size, and reproductive structure development. The gene is also connected to traits such as fruit yield, shoot system phosphorus content, starch grain size, seed coat hardness, zinc content, and spot blotch response. Studies of related genes in other species link the 14-3-3 family to grain size, seed-setting rate, pollen viability, grain yield, and heat tolerance, as well as to virus response, fungal defense, and salt response.
