Wcor15 (TRAESCS2A02G427200) — triticum aestivum

Summary

TRAESCS2A02G427200, symbol Wcor15, encodes an uncharacterized protein in bread wheat on chromosome 2A. The gene is associated with cold stress tolerance in this species. It is also associated with leaf chlorophyll content, stripe rust, low temperature stress response, cold tolerance, chlorophyll content, anthesis time, and grain yield. The gene is linked to responses to abiotic stimuli and stresses, including regulation of seed germination and coleoptile growth under submergence and normal gravity, as well as gravitropism under normal or artificial gravity environments. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to cold acclimation responses.
