Description
Jing Wang, Jiaxin Huang, Xu Jia, and Yanping Liang catalog a gene family in pepper plants in a 2025 study. The CHX family helps plants balance potassium and sodium, which matters under salt and other stress. Its role in pepper was largely unknown.
A genome-wide search found 23 CHX genes spread unevenly over ten chromosomes, in six subgroups. Most were active in flowers, which hints at a role in reproduction. Only two showed up in leaves. Under hormone and salt treatments, three genes switched on in clear time patterns. The survey gives breeders a gene map for building hardier pepper lines.
