Gene Details:
- Gene ID: LG4_402589
- Gene Symbol: LsSAW1
- Gene Name: SAWTOOTH 1
- Genome: Lsat_Salinas_v8
- Species: Lactuca sativa
Functional Descriptions:
- Loss-of-function of SAWTOOTH 1 (LsSAW1) affects leaf dorsiventrality genes to promote leafy heads in lettuce.
- A 1-bp deletion in LsSAW1 contributes to the development of leafy heads.
- Overexpression of LsAS1 compromised the effects of LsSAW1 on heading. LsSAW1 also binds to the promoter region of the abaxial gene YABBY 1 (LsYAB1), but downregulates its expression.
- LsSAW1 compromises the ability of LsKN1 to repress LsAS1. Our results suggest that downregulation or loss-of-function of adaxial genes and upregulation of abaxial genes allow for the development of leafy heads.
