MYB — Triticum aestivum

Summary

TRAESCS1D02G111400 (TaMYB) on wheat chromosome 1D encodes a protein with Myb and SANT domains, and is annotated for DNA-binding transcription factor activity, transcriptional co-regulator activity, metallopeptidase activity, and RNA polymerase binding. The gene is associated with biological processes including photoperiodism, upregulation of circadian rhythm, brassinosteroid anabolism, fructan anabolism, glutamate metabolism, sulfur metabolism, photoprotection, and antifungal innate immune response. It is linked to pre-harvest sprouting and stress-activated MAPK cascade. TaMYB is associated with traits including grain yield per plant, grain iron and zinc content, grain protein content, test weight, harvest index, water use efficiency, net photosynthetic rate, drought sensitivity, plant vigor, stand establishment, and seed coat color. The protein localizes to the nucleus and is associated with gibberellin signaling, jasmonic acid signaling, and salicylic acid signaling pathways.
