• These results suggest that OsBLE3 is involved in cell elongation in rice through dual regulation by BL and IAA
• In situ hybridization detected OsBLE3 mRNA in the shoot apical meristem, organ primordia and vascular tissue
• Reduced OsBLE3 expression and growth retardation was also observed in OsBLE3 antisense transgenic rice plants
• OsBLE3, a brassinolide-enhanced gene, is involved in the growth of rice
• These results, and the existence of auxin response elements in the 5’-flanking region of the OsBLE3 gene, indicate that OsBLE3 expression is under control of both BR and auxin
• To investigate the mechanism of BR action in monocots, a brassinolide (BL) upregulated gene designated OsBLE3 was identified, cloned and characterized in rice
• The GUS reporter gene driven by a 2277 bp OsBLE3 putative promoter was mainly expressed in vascular tissues, branch root primordia and was responsive to exogenous BL treatment

• D61~OsBRI1~OsBRKq1~HFR131, OsBLE3, OsBLE3, a brassinolide-enhanced gene, is involved in the growth of rice, In OsBRI1 antisense transgenic rice and OsBLE3, the BR-insensitive mutant expression of OsBLE3 in response to exogenous BL treatment was significantly lower compared to that in control plants transformed with a vacant vector
