Gene Details:
- Gene ID: Bradi5g03300
- Gene Symbol: Bradi5g03300
- Gene Name: UDP-Glycosyltransferase
- Genome:
- Species: Brachypodium distachyon
Functional Descriptions:
- Using the model cereal species Brachypodium distachyon, we show that the Bradi5g03300 UGT converts DON into D3G in planta.
- A detached glumes assay showed that overexpression but not mutation of the Bradi5g03300 gene alters primary infection by F. graminearum, highlighting the involvement of DON in early steps of infection.
- We present evidence that a mutation in Bradi5g03300 increases root sensitivity to DON and the susceptibility of spikes to F. graminearum, while overexpression confers increased root tolerance to the mycotoxin and spike resistance to the fungus.
- Mutation and Overexpression in the Bradi5g03300 Gene Alters Root Tolerance to DON.
