• Information
  • Symbol: OsPE
  • MSU: LOC_Os03g13810
  • RAPdb: Os03g0241300
• Publication
  • The polyembryo gene OsPE in rice, 2010, Funct Integr Genomics.
  • Development of multiple embryos in polyembryonic insertional mutant OsPE of rice, 2012, Plant Cell Rep.
• Genbank accession number
  • AK064767
• Key message
  • A T-DNA insertional mutant OsPE of rice gives twin and triplet seedlings in up to 20 % of the seeds
  • Confocal laser scanning microscopic (CLSM) analysis of the developing seeds of OsPE showed multiple embryo development in up to 60 % of the ovules
  • Key message Multiple seedlings in the OsPE mutant are due to sequential proliferation and cleavage of the zygotic embryos
  • RT-PCR showed the expression of OsPE gene in Basmati 370 shoots
  • , multiple embryos in the seeds in the knockout mutant OsPE whereas its wild-type allele strictly controls single embryo per seed
