Abstract excerpt
The spikelet is an inflorescence structure unique to grasses. The molecular mechanisms underlying spikelet development and evolution are unclear. In this study, we characterized three allelic recessive mutants in rice (Oryza sativa): nonstop glumes 1-1 (nsg1-1), nsg1-2, and nsg1-3 In these mutants, organs such as the rudimentary glume, sterile lemma, palea, lodicule, and filament were elongated and/or widened, or...
