Natural variation in Ghd7 is an important regulator of heading date and yield potential in rice

TL;DR: It is shown that the quantitative trait locus (QTL) Ghd7, isolated from an elite rice hybrid and encoding a CCT domain protein, has major effects on an array of traits in rice, including number of grains per panicle, plant height and heading date.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of ROS Regulation of Plant Development and Stress Responses

TL;DR: Recent progress in understanding the role of ROS during plant vegetative apical meristem development, organogenesis, and abiotic stress responses, and some novel findings in recent years are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

The WUSCHEL-Related Homeobox Gene WOX11 Is Required to Activate Shoot-Borne Crown Root Development in Rice

TL;DR: It is shown that a WUSCHEL-related Homeobox (WOX) gene, WOX11, is involved in the activation of crown root emergence and growth and may be an integrator of auxin and cytokinin signaling that feeds into RR2 to regulate cell proliferation during crown root development.
Journal ArticleDOI

The R2R3-type MYB gene OsMYB91 has a function in coordinating plant growth and salt stress tolerance in rice.

TL;DR: OsMYB91 was a stress-responsive gene that might be involved in coordinating rice tolerance to abiotic stress and plant growth by regulating SLR1 expression, the rice homolog of Arabidopsis DELLA genes that have been shown to integrate endogenous developmental signals with adverse environmental conditions.
