Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • CsSPL functions as an adaptor between HD-ZIP III and CsWUS transcription factors regulating anther and ovule development in cucumber.
  • Importantly, CsSPL directly interacted with CsWUS (WUSCHEL) in the nucellus and YABBY family genes in integuments, and positively regulated CsWUS expression, meanwhile the HD-ZIP III gene CsPHB (PHABULOSA), expressed specifically in the nucellus, promoted CsSPL expression by binding to the CsSPL promoter.
  • CsSPL acts as an adaptor to link CsPHB and CsWUS functioning, underpinning a previously unidentified regulatory pathway orchestrating sex organ development in planta.
  • CsSPL directly interacted with CsWUS in the nucellus, and CsPHV, CsPHB and CsARF13 were the upstream regulators of CsSPL by directly binding to the promoter of CsSPL in cucumber.
