Leaf rolling is receiving considerable attention as an important agronomic trait in rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, little has been known on the molecular mechanism of rice leaf rolling, especially the abaxial rolling. We identified a novel abaxially curled and drooping leaf-dominant mutant from a T₁ transgenic rice line. The abaxially curled leaf phenotypes, co-segregating with the inserted transferred DNA,...
