Identification and analysis of nine new flo2 allelic mutants in rice.

Abstract excerpt

FLO2 is involved in grain development and storage substance synthesis in rice, and therefore can regulate grain size and quality. In this study, we identified 4 new flo2 allelic mutants with nonsense and frameshift mutation in the exon of 6, 10, 11 and 21 and 5 new flo2 allelic mutants with alternative splicing and frameshift mutation at the splicing site of intron 13, 14, 16 and 17. Compared with wild-type rice,...
