Appears in the following schemes

General processes & autonomous pathway

Protein function

Encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) family.

Phenotype

Remarks:
bft mutant shows increased tolerance to salt stress. [Ryu et al., 2014]

Overexpressor:
BFT overexpressor is late flowering under LD conditions only and displays floral defects similar to 35S::TFL1 transgenic lines. [Yoo et al., 2010]

Single mutant:
bft single mutant has no flowering-time phenotype. However, bft single mutant and RNAi lines show modified inflorescences in the tfl1 single-mutant background. [Yoo et al., 2010]

Function:
May play a role in signal transduction pathways that involve calcium as a second messenger. [Data from UniProt]
