SPL17 — Triticum aestivum
Summary
TRAESCS5B02G265600, designated TaSPL17-5B, encodes a protein containing an SBP domain and functions as a DNA-binding transcription activator. This bread wheat gene on chromosome 5B is associated with ear development, flower development, fruit development, and the regulation of secondary shoot formation. It has been connected to the upregulation of the vernalization response and activation of defence responses to bacteria. The encoded protein localises to the nucleus. TaSPL17 is linked to ear number and bacterial disease resistance. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to grain size, grain yield, tiller number, plant height, root meristem development, and bacterial blight disease resistance.
