Abstract excerpt
Leaf senescence following heading in rice is subject to rigorous regulation, with many of the underlying control mechanisms remaining largely unknown. In this study, we identified a novel gene, OsMESL, which exerts a positive regulatory effect on leaf senescence in rice. The T-DNA insertion mutant known as osmesl and RNA interference plants displayed a phenotype characterized by stay-green after heading. Genetic...
