Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: MsPLP
  • Gene Name:
  • Genome:
  • Species: Medicago sativa

Functional Descriptions:

  • Down-regulation of MsPLP results in altered pulvinus structure with increased leaflet breakstrength, thus offering a new approach to decrease leaf loss during alfalfa haymaking process.
  • Functional characterization of PETIOLULE-LIKE PULVINUS (MsPLP) gene in abscission zone development in Medicago truncatula and its application to genetic improvement of alfalfa.
  • Suppression of MsPLP strengthens the leaflet and petiole pulvinus region.
  • The results show that down-regulation of MsPLP has no impact on alfalfa nutritive value when the vegetative plants were gently harvested without leaf loss.
