Gene Details:
- Gene ID:
- Gene Symbol: GhMYB25-like
- Gene Name: R2R3-MYB transcription factor 25
- Genome: TM1_NBI
- Species: Gossypium hirsutum
Functional Descriptions:
- Among these transcription factors, previous studies showed that downregulation of GhMYB25-like leads to a fiberless phenotype in cotton seeds.
- Molecular and genetic evidence showed that the GhJAZ2 protein suppresses fiber initiation in the overexpressing lines by interacting with GhMYB25-like and suppressing GhMYB25-like activity.
- GhJAZ2 negatively regulated fiber initiation via interacting with GhMYB25-like.
- GhMYB25-like has previously been shown to be an important factor for fiber cell differentiation and initiation in experiments, as silencing of this gene in transgenic cotton results in the production of fiberless seeds.
- Transgenic cotton with an additional copy of the native gene had elevated expression of GhMYB25-like in ovules, but no obvious increase in fibre initials, suggesting that there may be other factors that interact with GhMYB25-like to differentiate epidermal cells into fibre cells.
