Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Bra019999.1
  • Gene Symbol: BcpLH
  • Gene Name: Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis LEAFY HEADS
  • Genome:
  • Species: Brassica rapa

Functional Descriptions:

  • BcpLH organizes a specific subset of microRNAs to form a leafy head in Chinese cabbage.
  • BcpLH , a close homolog of HYL1, is differentially expressed in juvenile leaves, which are flat, and in adult leaves, which display extreme incurvature.
  • BcpLH downregulation via antisense decreased a specific subset of miRNAs and increased the activities of their target genes, causing upward curvature of rosette leaves and early leaf incurvature, concurrent with the enlargement, earliness, and round-to-oval shape transition of leafy heads.
  • BcpLH controls a specific subset of miRNAs in Chinese cabbage and coordinates the direction, extent, and timing of leaf curvature during head formation in Brassica rapa.
