Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Gh_D05G3800
• Gene Symbol: GhPdBG
• Gene Name:
• Genome: TM1_NBI
• Species: Gossypium hirsutum

Functional Descriptions:

• The plasmodesmata-associated β-1,3-glucanase gene GhPdBG regulates fiber development in cotton.
• Identified a plasmodesmal β-1,3-glucanase gene (designated GhPdBG) controlling the opening and closing of plasmodesmata in cotton fibers.
• This finding suggests that plasmodesmal targeting of GhPdBG, as a switch of intercellular channels, regulates single-celled fiber and trichome development in cotton.
• Ectopic expression of GhPdBG revealed that it functions in regulating fiber and trichome length and/or density by modulating plasmodesmatal permeability. This finding suggests that plasmodesmal targeting of GhPdBG, as a switch of intercellular channels, regulates single-celled fiber and trichome development in cotton.
