Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Gbar_D03G007630
  • Gene Symbol: GbCML50
  • Gene Name: calmodulin-like 50
  • Genome:
  • Species: Gossypium barbadense

Functional Descriptions:

  • Positive roles of the Ca2+ sensors GbCML45 and GbCML50 in improving cotton Verticillium wilt resistance.
  • Furthermore, there was physiological interaction between GbCML45 and its close homologue GbCML50 by using yeast two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence assays, and both proteins enhanced cotton resistance to V. dahliae infection in a Ca2+-dependent way in a knockdown study.
  • Knockdown of GbCML50 decreases Verticillium wilt resistance in cotton.
  • Both GbCML45 and GbCML50 positively regulate Verticillium wilt resistance in Arabidopsis as their Arabidopsis homologues AtCML46 and AtCML49.
  • These results collectively indicated that GbCML45 and GbCML50 act as positive regulators to improve cotton Verticillium wilt resistance, providing potential targets for exploitation of improved Verticillium wilt-tolerant cotton cultivars by genetic engineering and molecular breeding.
