Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: PvLOX6
• Gene Name: Lipoxygenase 6
• Genome:
• Species: Phaseolus vulgaris

Functional Descriptions:

• Isolated the cDNA of a novel chloroplast-targeted Phaseolus vulgaris LOX, (PvLOX6). This gene is highly induced after wounding, non-host pathogen infection, and by signaling molecules as H2O2, SA, ethylene and MeJA.
• The phylogenetic analysis of PvLOX6 showed that it is closely related to chloroplast-targeted LOX from potato (H1) and tomato (TomLOXC); both of them are implicated in the biosynthesis of C6 volatiles.
• Induction of PvLOX6 mRNA by wounding ethylene and jasmonic acid on the one side, and non-host pathogen, salicylic acid on the other indicates that common bean uses the same LOX to synthesize oxylipins in response to different stresses.
• PvLOX6 was included in this clade. On the basis of this observation it is suggested that this enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of C6 volatiles.
