Panicle Apical Abortion 3 Controls Panicle Development and Seed Size in Rice

Rice, 2021
Background In rice, panicle apical abortion is a common phenomenon that usually results in a decreased number of branches and grains per panicle, and consequently a reduced grain yield.

FGW1, a protein containing DUF630 and DUF632 domains, regulates grain size and filling in Oryza sativa L.

Crop Journal, 2023
Grain filling influences grain size and quality in cereal crops. The molecular mechanisms that regulate grain endosperm development remain elusive. In this study, we characterized a filling-defective and grain width mutant, fgw1, whose mutation increased

OsCCRL1 is Essential for Phenylpropanoid Metabolism in Rice Anthers

Rice, 2023
Phenylpropanoid metabolism and timely tapetal degradation are essential for anther and pollen development, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. In the current study, to investigate this, we identified and analyzed the male-sterile mutant, osccrl1 ...

Analysis of QTL for Grain Size in a Rice Chromosome Segment Substitution Line Z1392 with Long Grains and Fine Mapping of qGL-6

Rice, 2020
Background Grain size affects not only rice yield but is also an important element in quality of appearance. However, the mechanism for inheritance of grain size is unclear.

MULTI-FLORET SPIKELET 4 (MFS4) Regulates Spikelet Development and Grain Size in Rice

Rice Science, 2021
In rice, the spikelet is the basic unit of inflorescence, and its development is important for determining the grain yield and quality. We reported a rice spikelet mutant multi-floret spikelet 4 (mfs4) which resulted in the production of extra floral ...

Less hairy leaf 1, an RNaseH-like protein, regulates trichome formation in rice through auxin

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
The trichomes of rice leaves are formed by the differentiation and development of epidermal cells. Plant trichomes play an important role in stress resistance and protection against direct ultraviolet irradiation.

YGL9, encoding the putative chloroplast signal recognition particle 43 kDa protein in rice, is involved in chloroplast development

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016
The nuclear-encoded light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding proteins (LHCPs) are specifically translocated from the stroma into the thylakoid membrane through the chloroplast signal recognition particle (cpSRP) pathway.

Gene mapping and candidate gene analysis of aberrant-floral spikelet 1 (afs1) in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
The spikelet is a unique inflorescence structure in grasses. However, the molecular mechanism that regulates its development remains unclear, and we therefore characterize a spikelet mutant of rice (Oryza sativa L.), aberrant-floral spikelet 1 (afs1 ...

Effect of the Matrix and Target on the Accurate Quantification of Genomic and Plasmid DNA by Digital Polymerase Chain Reaction

Agriculture, 2023
In polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based nucleic acid quantification, the DNA template type, primer/probe sequence, and instrument platform such as real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) and digital PCR (dPCR) affect the accuracy and reliability of ...

Zebra leaf 15, a receptor-like protein kinase involved in moderate low temperature signaling pathway in rice

Rice, 2019
Background Zebra leaf mutants are an important resource for studying leaf colour in rice. In most such mutants, the zebra leaf phenotype results from defective chloroplast biogenesis. The molecular mechanism by which zebra leaves develop remains unclear,
