leafy hull sterile1 Is a Homeotic Mutation in a Rice MADS Box Gene Affecting Rice Flower Development
Rice contains several MADS box genes. It has been demonstrated previously that one of
these genes, OsMADS1 (for Oryza sativa MADS box gene1), is expressed preferentially in
flowers and causes early flowering when ectopically expressed in tobacco plants. In this
study, we demonstrated that ectopic expression of OsMADS1 in rice also results in early
flowering. To further investigate the role of OsMADS1 during rice flower development, we
generated transgenic rice plants expressing altered OsMADS1 genes that contain missense …
