Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Soltu.DM.02G023940.1
• Gene Symbol: StWUS
• Gene Name: WUSCHEL
• Genome:
• Species: Solanum tuberosum

Functional Descriptions:

• WUSCHEL (StWUS) controls genotype-dependent shoot regeneration capacity in potato.
• Demonstrated that WUSCHEL (StWUS)—a homeodomain transcription factor—determines regeneration capacity in different potato (Solanum tuberosum) genotypes.
• StWUS silencing suppressed shoot regeneration. Meanwhile, in a low-efficiency genotype, regeneration could be enhanced through the supplementation of a different type of cytokinin that promoted WUS expression.
• The present study revealed that cytokinin responses, particularly StWUS expression, determine shoot regeneration efficiency in different potato genotypes.
