Gene Details:

• Gene ID: BnaA10g00180D
• Gene Symbol: SGI
• Gene Name: Stress and Growth Interconnector
• Genome:
• Species: Brassica napus

Functional Descriptions:

• Herein, we report a previously uncharacterized, dicotyledon-specific gene, Stress and Growth Interconnector (SGI), that promotes growth during drought in the oil crop rapeseed (Brassica napus) and the model plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana).
• Overexpression of SGI conferred enhanced biomass and yield under water-deficient conditions, whereas corresponding CRISPR SGI mutants exhibited the opposite effects.
• SGI represents an intrinsically disordered region-containing protein that interacts with itself, catalase isoforms, dehydrins, and other drought-responsive positive factors, restraining ROS generation.
• SGI is involved in plant resistance to drought stress.
