Caught red-handed: Rc encodes a basic helix-loop-helix protein conditioning red pericarp in rice.

The Plant cell - 1 Feb 2006

Sweeney Megan T, Thomson Michael J, Pfeil Bernard E, McCouch Susan

Abstract excerpt

Rc is a domestication-related gene required for red pericarp in rice (Oryza sativa). The red grain color is ubiquitous among the wild ancestors of O. sativa, in which it is closely associated with seed shattering and dormancy. Rc encodes a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein that was fine-mapped to an 18.5-kb region on rice chromosome 7 using a cross between Oryza rufipogon (red pericarp) and O. sativa cv...
