Complex biological processes such as plant growth and development are often under the control of transcription factors that regulate expression large sets genes activate subordinate in a cascade-like fashion. Here, by screening candidate photosynthesis-related rice, we identified DREB (Dehydration Responsive Element Binding) family member, OsDREB1C, which is induced both light low nitrogen status. We show OsDREB1C drives functionally diverse transcriptional programs determining...
Abstract Photosynthetic efficiency is a major target for improvement of crop yield potential under agricultural field conditions. Inefficiencies can occur in many steps the photosynthetic process, from chloroplast biogenesis to functioning light harvesting and carbon fixation reactions. Nuclear-encoded GOLDEN2-LIKE (GLK) transcription factors regulate some earliest by activating genes encoding chloroplast-localized photosynthesis-related proteins. Here we show that constitutive expression...
Abstract Drought has become one of the most severe abiotic stresses experienced in agricultural production across world. Plants respond to water deficit via stomatal movements leaves, which are mainly regulated by abscisic acid (ABA). A previous study from our lab showed that constitutive expression maize (Zea mays L.) GOLDEN2-LIKE (GLK) transcription factors rice (Oryza sativa can improve conductance and plant photosynthetic capacity under field conditions. In present study, we uncovered a...
ABSTRACT Flowering time is a critical agronomic trait in rice, directly influencing grain yield and adaptability to specific planting regions seasons. Florigens, including FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) proteins Hd3a (OsFTL2) RFT1 (OsFTL3), play central roles transmitting flowering signals through rice's photoperiod regulatory network. While have been extensively studied, the functions interactions of other FT‐like remain unclear, limiting advancements breeding strategies for early‐maturing rice...
Summary Ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO) is required for photosynthetic carbon assimilation, as it catalyses the conversion of inorganic into organic carbon. Despite its importance, RuBisCO inefficient; has a low catalytic rate and poor substrate specificity. Improving performance one key routes enhancing plant photosynthesis. As basic subunit RuBisCO, RbcS affects properties plays role in stabilizing structure holoenzyme. Yet, understanding functions crops still...
Despite the great success achieved by exploitation of heterosis in rice, genetic basis is still not well understood. We adopted an advanced-backcross breeding strategy to dissect for yield and eight related traits. Four testcross (TC) populations with 228 F1 combinations were developed crossing 57 introgression lines four types widely used male sterile using a North Carolina II mating design. Analysis variance indicated that effects their parents significant or highly most traits both years,...
Heading date is a crucial agronomic trait. However, rice usually delays heading due to the photoperiod, temperature, hormones or age. The present research was conducted analyze mechanism controlling in F1 hybrid rice. We constructed two test-crossing populations using introgression lines (ILs), P20 and P21 coming from SH527/FH838 as male parent, respectively, sterile line Jin23A female parent. Meanwhile, hybrids of H20, obtained by mating with having no heading, H21, crossing between normal...
