Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: CA02g14540
  • Gene Symbol: CaFFN
  • Gene Name: APETALA2 (AP2) homolog
  • Genome:
  • Species: Capsicum annuum

Functional Descriptions:

  • The APETALA2 homolog CaFFN regulates flowering time in pepper.
  • An APETALA2 (AP2) homolog (CaFFN) cosegregated with flowering time in 297 individuals of the F2 population. A comparison between the parents revealed a naturally occurring rare SNP (SNP2T > C) that resulted in the loss of a start codon in CaFFN in the early flowering mutant.
  • The CaFFN gene association analysis revealed a significant association with flowering time in a natural pepper population, indicating that the CaFFN gene has a broad effect on flowering time in pepper
  • This study increases our understanding of the involvement of CaFFN in controlling flowering time in pepper, thus making CaFFN a target gene for breeding early maturing pepper.
