Gene Details:
- Gene ID: Cla008537
- Gene Symbol: ClWIP1
- Gene Name: C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor
- Genome: Cucurbit Genomics Database
- Species: Citrullus lanatus
Functional Descriptions:
- A putative C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor gene, ClWIP1 (gene ID Cla008537), an orthologue of the melon gynoecy gene CmWIP1, was disrupted.
- Functional studies showed that ClWIP1 is expressed specifically in carpel primordia and is related to the abortion of carpel primordia in early floral development.
- To identify the cellular and metabolic processes associated with ClWIP1, we compared the shoot apex transcriptomes of two gynoecious mutants and their corresponding wild types.
- These results showed that normal function of ClWIP1 is important for the development of male flowers.
