Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Gh_A10G0312
• Gene Symbol: GhBZR3
• Gene Name:
• Genome: TM1_NBI
• Species: Gossypium hirsutum

Functional Descriptions:

• GhBZR3 suppresses cotton fiber elongation by inhibiting very-long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis.
• Overexpression of GhBZR3 in Arabidopsis caused shorter root hair length, hypocotyl length, and hypocotyl cell length, indicating that GhBZR3 negatively regulates cell elongation.
• Pathway enrichment analysis from VIGS-GhBZR3 cotton plants found that fatty acid metabolism and degradation might be the regulatory pathway that is primarily controlled by GhBZR3.
• Silencing GhBZR3 expression in cotton resulted in taller plant height as well as longer fibers.
• These results indicate that GhBZR3 negatively regulates cotton fiber development by reducing VLCFA biosynthesis.
