Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: CsMADS5
  • Gene Name: FRUITFULL sub-clade MADS 5
  • Genome:
  • Species: Citrus sinensis

Functional Descriptions:

  • A fruit ripening-associated transcription factor CsMADS5 positively regulates carotenoid biosynthesis in citrus.
  • Transient overexpression of CsMADS5 in citrus induced fruit coloration and enhanced carotenoid concentrations.
  • Similar results were observed from stable overexpression of CsMADS5 in tomato fruits and citrus calli, even though the effect of CsMADS5 on carotenoid metabolism in transgenic citrus calli was limited.
  • CsMADS5 physically interacted with a positive regulator CsMADS6, indicating that CsMADS5 may form an enhancer complex with CsMADS6 to synergistically promote carotenoid accumulation.
