Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: Two novel QTLs for early seedling growth in rice were fine mapped, with one of which to a 4-kb identical to the known GW6a gene, and another one to a 43-kb region that contains six candidate genes. Leaves are extremely important for plant photosynthesis: the size and shape of which determine the rate of transpiration, carbon fixation and light interception, and their robust growth at seedling...
