Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Two tightly linked genes for rice purple leaf sheath were identified via map-based cloning. Further analysis indicated that these two genes together with OsC1 co-regulating the purple leaf sheath. The purple color of the leaf sheath in rice is dependent on the accumulation of anthocyanins such as cyanidin 3-O-glucoside (C3G) and peonidin 3-O-glucoside (P3G). Although many genes related to leaf sheath...
