Gene Details:
- Gene ID: BnaC05G0364600WE
- Gene Symbol: BnFAX6
- Gene Name: Fatty Acid Export 6
- Genome: ZS11 reference genome
- Species: Brassica napus
Functional Descriptions:
- Fatty acid export protein BnFAX6 functions in lipid synthesis and axillary bud growth in Brassica napus.
- Overexpression of BnFAX6 in B. napus heightened the expression of genes involved in glycolysis and lipid biosynthesis, promoting the flow of photosynthetic products to the biosynthesis of FAs (including linoleic acid and its derivatives).
- Enhancing expression of BnFAX6 increased oil content in seeds and leaves and resulted in semi-dwarf and increased branching phenotypes with more siliques, contributing to increased yield per plant relative to wild-type.
- Overexpression of BnFAX6 enhanced the flow of photosynthetic products to lipids biosynthesis, thereby increasing oil content in seeds and leaves and promoting axillary bud outgrowth. Moreover, linoleic acid is a pivotal signaling molecule in apical dominance, and increasing linoleic acid level in axillary bud promotes bud release.
