Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Capana02g002763
  • Gene Symbol: DFR
  • Gene Name: dihydroflavonol 4-reductase
  • Genome:
  • Species: Capsicum annuum

Functional Descriptions:

  • The bHLH1-DTX35/DFR module regulates pollen fertility by promoting flavonoid biosynthesis in Capsicum annuum L.
  • RNA-seq analyses showed that expression of the flavonoid synthesis genes DFR, ANS, and RT was significantly reduced in anthers of CabHLH1-silenced plants and rpf1 plants, as was the expression of DTX35, a gene related to pollen fertility and flavonoid transport.
  • DTX35 or DFR silencing reduces pepper pollen fertility and anther flavonoid content.
  • Our study showed that CabHLH1 regulates flavonoid synthesis by positively regulating the expression of DTX35 and DFR, thereby acting as a positive regulator of pepper pollen fertility.
