Regulation of expansin gene expression affects growth and development in transgenic rice plants.

The Plant cell - 1 Jun 2003

Choi Dongsu, Lee Yi, Cho Hyung-Taeg, Kende Hans

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the in vivo functions of expansins, we generated transgenic rice plants that express sense and antisense constructs of the expansin gene OsEXP4. In adult plants with constitutive OsEXP4 expression, 12% of overexpressors were taller and 88% were shorter than the average control plants, and most overexpressors developed at least two additional leaves. Antisense plants were shorter and flowered...
