Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • Insertion of a mMoshan transposable element in PpLMI1, is associated with the absence or globose phenotype of extrafloral nectaries in peach.
  • Three double-recombinants allowed identifying Prupe.7G121100, a LMI1-like homeodomain leucine zipper (HD-Zip) transcription factor, as a likely candidate for the trait. By comparing peach genomic resequencing data from individuals with contrasted phenotypes, a MITE-like transposable element of the hAT superfamily (mMoshan) was identified in the third exon of Prupe.7G121100.
  • These findings thus contribute to confirm the possible involvement of PpLMI1 in leaf margin structures in peach and accordingly in the phenotype of EFNs.
