Down-Regulation of a Nicotinate Phosphoribosyltransferase Gene, OsNaPRT1, Leads to Withered Leaf Tips.

TL;DR: Cl cloning and characterization of Leaf Tip Senescence 1 in rice and results suggest that deficiency in the NAD salvage pathway can trigger premature leafsenescence due to transcriptional activation of senescence-related genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using CRISPR-Cas9 to generate semi-dwarf rice lines in elite landraces.

TL;DR: This work used the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated protein9(Cas9) genome editing system to edit Semi-Dwarf1 (SD1) in the elite landraces Kasalath and TeTePu (TTP), which contain many desired agronomic traits such as tolerance to low phosphorous and broad-spectrum resistance to several diseases and insects.
Journal ArticleDOI

QTL analysis for rice salinity tolerance and fine mapping of a candidate locus qSL7 for shoot length under salt stress

TL;DR: A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a super hybrid rice Liang–You–Pei–Jiu (LYP9) parents 93-11 and PA64s, exhibited variation in phenotypes including shoot length, root length, shoot fresh weight, and root dry weight under 50 and 100 mM NaCl stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Production of novel beneficial alleles of a rice yield‐related QTL by CRISPR/Cas9

TL;DR: This study of a locus involved in resistance to lodging demonstrated that saturation editing of the qSCSA3-1/OsTB1/SCM3 region led to loss-of-function, normal-like, and gain- of-function plant types, based on OsTB1 expression and stem cross-section area.
Journal ArticleDOI

White stripe leaf 12 (WSL12), encoding a nucleoside diphosphate kinase 2 (OsNDPK2), regulates chloroplast development and abiotic stress response in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

TL;DR: Results indicate that the OsNDPK2 encoded by WSL12 plays an important role in chloroplast development and chlorophyll biosynthesis by regulating the expression levels of related genes.
