Abstract excerpt
Grain shape is a crucial determinant of grain weight and quality and plays a vital role in rice breeding. Although many grain shape-related genes have been reported, the regulatory relationship between them has not been well characterized in rice. In this study, we report the isolation of a short-grain-length mutant called sg5 from the heavy-panicle-type hybrid rice elite restorer line 'ShuhuiR498' (R498) after...
