Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS3B02G148100
• Gene Symbol: TaABCC3.1
• Gene Name: ABC transporter C family member 3 protein 1
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Two variants of an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family C transporter gene were cloned from DON-treated wheat mRNA, namely TaABCC3.1 and TaABCC3.2. These represent two of three putative genes identified on chromosomes 3A, 3B, and 3D of the wheat genome sequence.
• Variant TaABCC3.1 represents the DON-responsive transcript previously associated with DON resistance in wheat.
• Gene expression studies showed that TaABCC3.1 is activated as part of the early host response to DON and in response to the FHB defence hormone jasmonic acid.
• VIGS of TaABCC3 genes also reduced the grain number by more than 28% (P<0.05), both with and without DON treatment, and the effects were greater for the construct that targeted the two homeologues.
