Under conditions of labor or resource scarcity, direct seeding, rather than transplantation, is the preferred mode rice (Oryza sativa) cultivation. This approach requires varieties that exhibit uniform seedling emergence. Mesocotyl elongation (ME), main driver rapid emergence seedlings from soil, enhanced by darkness and inhibited light. Plant polyamine oxidases (PAOs) oxidize polyamines (PAs) release H2O2. Here, we established OsPAO5 expression in increased presence light darkness. To...
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play fundamental roles in many developmental and physiological processes eukaryotes. MiRNAs plants generally regulate their targets via either mRNA cleavage or translation repression; however, which approach plays a major role whether these two function modes can shift remains elusive. Here, we identify miRNA, miR408-5p that regulates AUXIN/INDOLE ACETIC ACID 30 ( IAA30 ), critical repressor the auxin pathway switching action rice. We find usually inhibits protein...
The plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP) plays an important role in the transcription machinery of mature chloroplasts, yet details its function remain elusive rice. Here, we identified a novel PEP-associated protein (PAP), WLP2, based on two allelic white leaf and panicle mutants, wlp2s wlp2w. mutants were albino lethal at high temperatures showed decreased chlorophyll accumulation, abnormal chloroplast ultrastructure, attenuated photosynthetic activity. Map-based cloning suggested that...
Enhanced grain yield and quality traits are everlasting breeding goals. It is therefore of great significance to uncover more genetic resources associated with these two important agronomic traits. Plant MYB family transcription factors play regulatory roles in diverse biological processes. However, studies on functions rice rarely be reported. Here, we investigated a nucleus-localized factor OsMYB73 which preferentially expressed the early developing pericarp endosperm. We generated...
High temperature (HT) affects the production of chlorophyll (Chl) pigment and inhibits cellular processes that impair photosynthesis, growth development in plants. However, molecular mechanisms underlying heat stress rice are not fully understood yet. In this study, we identified two mutants varying leaf color from ethylmethanesulfonate mutant library indica cv. Zhongjiazao-17, which showed pale-green variegated phenotype under HT conditions. Mut-map revealed both were allelic, their was...
Magnesium-protoporphyrin IX monomethyl ester cyclase (MPEC) catalyzes the conversion of MPME to divinyl protochlorophyllide (DVpchlide). This is an essential enzyme during chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthesis but details its function in rice are still lacking. Here, we identified a novel mutant yellow-leaf 1 (yl-1), which showed decreased Chl accumulation, abnormal chloroplast ultrastructure and attenuated photosynthetic activity. Map-based cloning over-expression analysis suggested that YL-1...
Taste is crucial for the economic value of rice (Oryza sativa L.) and determines consumer preference. However, mechanisms underlying taste formation have remained unclear. Here, we show that OsGATA7 contributes to desirable quality by affecting swelling properties, texture, cooked rice. binds promoter SMOS1, activates its expression, thereby regulating quality. Furthermore, SMOS1 protein biosynthesis gene OsGluA2, recruits PRC2 complex repress leading increased content. The overexpression...
In rice (Oryza sativa), defects in endosperm development can give grains a chalky texture, which decreases grain quality and is therefore undesirable for breeding marketing. However, the molecular basis of chalkiness remains largely unknown. Here, we identified CHALK10, encodes an F-box protein that negatively regulates chalkiness. The chalk10 mutant exhibited abnormal starch granule development, decreased content alteration physicochemical properties when compared to wild type. CHALK10...
