Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Bol013612
  • Gene Symbol: Cgl2
  • Gene Name: Cabbage glossy 2
  • Genome:
  • Species: Brassica oleracea

Functional Descriptions:

  • Cgl2 plays an essential role in cuticular wax biosynthesis in cabbage.
  • We fine-mapped a wax synthesis gene using the F2 populations, analyzed the genes present in the candidate region, and identified Bol013612, which is homologous to CER4, as a candidate gene for Cgl2.
  • The gene responsible for the glossy green trait in LD10GL is named as Cgl2 for the reason that Cgl2 is the 2nd gene which was fine-mapped and cloned in cabbage (the 1st gene fine-mapped and cloned was named Cgl1).
  • The identification of Cgl2 gene will enhance our understanding about its role in cabbage wax biosynthesis and lays a foundation for further study of cabbage wax metabolism.
