Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • The major-effect quantitative trait locus Fnl7.1 encodes a late embryogenesis abundant protein associated with fruit neck length in cucumber.
  • Fine genetic mapping, sequences alignment and gene expression analysis revealed that CsFnl7.1 was the most likely candidate Fnl7.1 locus, which encodes a late embryogenesis abundant protein.
  • The function of CsFnl7.1 in FNL control was confirmed by its overexpression in transgenic cucumbers.
  • CsFnl7.1 regulates fruit neck development by modulating cell expansion. Probably, this is achieved through the direct protein–protein interactions between CsFnl7.1 and a dynamin-related protein CsDRP6 and a germin-like protein CsGLP1.
