NASC ID: N16269

Name: pgp4-1

ABRC stock number: CS16269

Description: Confirmed line isolated from original SALK line SALK_063720; homozygous for the insertion. Selected after PCR analysis of the insertion site. PGP4 exhibits apolar plasma membrane localization in the root cap and polar localization in tissues above. Auxin influx transporter shows reversibility in heterologous systems.

Gene: Allele: Locus: AGI code:
  • pgp4-1
  • pgp

Phenotype

Reduced root gravitropic bending and elongation as well as lateral root formation; reduced root elongation is conditional and dependent on light intensity and sucrose. Reduced basipetal auxin transport in roots (~35%) and a small decrease in shoot-to-root transport consistent with a partial loss of the redirective auxin sink in the root.
