Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: LeSPL-CNR
• Gene Name: SQUAMOSA PROMOTER-BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE
• Genome: Tomato Genome version SL4.0
• Species: Solanum lycopersicum

Functional Descriptions:

• LeSPL-CNR negatively regulates Cd acquisition through repressing nitrate reductase-mediated nitric oxide production in tomato.
• An SPL-type transcription factor, LeSPL-CNR, is negatively involved in NO production by modulating SlNR expression and nitrate reductase activity, which contributes to Cd tolerance.
• LeSPL-CNR functions as a transcriptional repressor to down-regulate nitrate reductase (NR) expression, and control the NO production by NR| thus, inhibiting the LeIRT1-mediated Cd acquisition by roots.
• LeSPL-CNR may thus provide a molecular mechanism linking Cd stress response to regulation of NR-dependent NO production, which then contributes to Cd uptake via SlIRT1 expression in tomato.
