Abstract excerpt
Alternative oxidase (AOX) is encoded in a multigene family, and multiple isoforms have been observed in various plant species. We found for the first time an allelic variation in the same AOX locus. On SDS-gel blots of callus protein of rice (Oryza sativa L.), varieties without the QTL for low temperature tolerance showed a 32-kDa AOX band, whereas those with the QTL showed a 34-kDa band. The variation was...
