Gene Details:
- Gene ID: Csa6G079750
- Gene Symbol: CsCER1
- Gene Name: ECERIFERUM1
- Genome: Cucurbit Genomics Database
- Species: Camelina sativa
Functional Descriptions:
- We identified 67 GT development–related genes, the functions of 7 of which were validated by virus-induced gene silencing. We further validated the role of cucumber ECERIFERUM1 (CsCER1) in GT organogenesis by overexpression and RNA interference transgenic approaches.
- The roles of the cucumber ECERIFERUM1 (CsCER1) gene in GT organogenesis were further validated with overexpression (OE) and RNAi transgenic approaches.
- RNAi plants silencing CsCER1 resulted in decrease of GT density, which was consistent to the phenotype observed in VIGS plants of this gene.
- Cucumber ECERIFERUM1 (CsCER1), which influences the cuticle properties and drought tolerance of cucumber, plays a key role in VLC alkanes biosynthesis.
- The expression of CsCER1 can be induced by low temperature, drought, salt stress and abscisic acid. In addition, abnormal expressions of CsCER1 in transgenic cucumber plants have dramatic effects on very-long-chain (VLC) alkanes biosynthesis, cuticle permeability, and drought resistance.
