Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Cs7g17670.1
  • Gene Symbol: CitTPS16
  • Gene Name: terpene synthase16
  • Genome:
  • Species: Citrus sinensis

Functional Descriptions:

  • Transcription factor CitERF71 activates the terpene synthase gene CitTPS16 involved in the synthesis of E-geraniol in sweet orange fruit.
  • Terpene synthase 16 (CitTPS16) was shown to catalyze synthesis of E-geraniol in vitro, and transient overexpression of CitTPS16 in fruits and leaves of Newhall sweet orange resulted in E-geraniol accumulation in vivo.
  • Transient overexpression of CitTPS16 in sweet orange increased production of E-geraniol.
  • These results indicate an important role for CitERF71 in transcriptional regulation of CitTPS16 and, therefore, in controlling production of E-geraniol in Citrus fruit.
