Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: EVM0036869.1
  • Gene Symbol: CAMTA2
  • Gene Name: hyper-DMR-associated gene
  • Genome:
  • Species: Pyrus pyrifolia

Functional Descriptions:

  • One of the genes, CAMTA2 (EVM0036869.1), which contains a hypermethylated DMR in the penultimate exon region (gene body), was selected for functional analysis because a previous study showed that CAMTA is associated with plant senescence.
  • The expression level of CAMTA2 was measured by qRT-PCR. As a result, the DNA methylation level and expression level of CAMTA2 exhibited a significant negative correlation.
  • The fruit and callus treatments showed similar results, showing that DNA methylation plays an essential role during the fruit ripening of pears by regulating the gene expression of CAMTA2.
  • We further verify the function of a hyper-DMR-associated gene, CAMTA2, and demonstrate that overexpression of CAMTA2 in tomato and pear callus inhibits fruit ripening.
