Gene Details:

• Gene ID: CA06g22610
• Gene Symbol: CaFAF1
• Gene Name: C. annuum FANTASTIC FOUR-like 1
• Genome:
• Species: Capsicum annuum

Functional Descriptions:

• Isolated the FANTASTIC FOUR-like gene CaFAF1 (Capsicum annuum Fantastic Four 1) from pepper and functionally characterized this gene with respect to its responses to drought and salt stresses.
• CaFAF1 expression was relatively abundant in all examined pepper tissues and was significantly induced by drought and salt stress.
• CaFAF1-silenced pepper plants exhibited enhanced drought tolerance, accompanied by a high expression of stress-related genes and enhanced abscisic acid-mediated stomatal closure.
• CaFAF1 plays negative and positive roles in response to drought and salt stresses, respectively, possibly via modulation of its protein stability.
