Abstract excerpt
Leaf angle is a pivotal agronomic trait that significantly influences crop architecture and yield. Plant hormones, such as auxin, play a critical role in regulating leaf angle; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. Here, we reveal that the auxin response factor gene, OsARF12, which is highly expressed in the leaf lamina joint, negatively regulates rice (Oryza sativa L.) leaf...
