Gene Details:
- Gene ID: Cs6g07800.1
- Gene Symbol: CsiLAC4
- Gene Name: Citrus LACCASE-4
- Genome: Orange Genomic Database
- Species: Citrus sinensis
Functional Descriptions:
- CsiLAC4’s role in xylem lignification was determined by mRNA hybridization and cytochemistry. In situ B distribution was analyzed by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
- CsiLAC4 and CsiLAC17 are predominantly localized in the apoplast of tobacco epidermal cells.
- Overexpression of CsiLAC4 in Arabidopsis improves the plants’ tolerance to boric acid excess by triggering high-B-dependent lignification of the vascular system’s cell wall and reducing free B content in roots and shoots.
- CsiLAC4 contributes to plant tolerance to boric acid excess via high-B-dependent lignification of cell walls, which set up a ‘physical barrier’ preventing B flow.
