Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • Our findings revealed that MaMADS36 directly binds to the CA/T(r)G box of the MaBAM9b promoter to increase MaBAM9b transcription and, in turn, enzyme activity and starch degradation during ripening.
  • Transcription factor MaMADS36 plays a central role in regulating banana fruit ripening.
  • These results suggested that MaMADS36 regulated starch degradation by regulating MaBAM9b expression.
  • MaMADS36 played a central role in controlling fruit ripening. MaMADS36 not only interacted with other MADS-box TFs, but also interacted with other TFs or key genes related to ethylene biosynthesis, starch and sugar metabolism, and cell wall metabolism to regulate fruit ripening.
  • Analysis of these lines showed that MaMADS36 interacts with 74 other proteins to form a co-expression network and could act as an important switch to regulate ethylene biosynthesis, starch degradation, softening, and sugar accumulation.
