A QTL for rice grain width and weight encodes a previously unknown RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligase.

Nature genetics - 1 May 2007

Abstract excerpt

Grain weight is one of the most important components of grain yield and is controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) derived from natural variations in crops. However, the molecular roles of QTLs in the regulation of grain weight have not been fully elucidated. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of GW2, a new QTL that controls rice grain width and weight. Our data show that GW2 encodes a...
