Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: CaRAX1;2a|SFL
  • Gene Name: SINGLE FLOWER
  • Genome:
  • Species: Cicer arietinum

Functional Descriptions:

  • The SINGLE FLOWER (2a|SFL) gene encodes a MYB transcription factor that regulates the number of flowers produced by the inflorescence of chickpea.
  • CaRAX1;2a/SFL acts in the I2 meristem controlling its activity.
  • These results showed the existence of a deletion affecting three genes in the mapping region of the 2a|SFL gene, only in double-pod genotypes. This points to these genes as the most likely candidates for the double-pod phenotype in 2a|SFL-d mutants.
  • Our findings reveal 2a|SFL as a central factor controlling chickpea inflorescence architecture, acting in the I2 meristem to regulate the length of the period for which it remains active, and therefore determining the number of floral meristems that it can produce.
