• Information
  • Symbol: OsBLE2
  • MSU: LOC_Os07g45570
  • RAPdb: Os07g0650600
• Publication
  • A novel brassinolide-enhanced gene identified by cDNA microarray is involved in the growth of rice, 2003, Plant Mol Biol.
• Genbank accession number
  • AB072978
• Key message
  • OsBLE2 expressed more, as revealed by in situ hybridization, in vascular bundles and root primordia, where the cells are actively undergoing division, elongation, and differentiation
  • OsBLE2 expression was most responsive to BL in the lamina joint and leaf sheath in rice seedlings
  • Transgenic rice expressing antisense OsBLE2 exhibits various degrees of repressed growth
  • These results suggest that OsBLE2 is involved in BL-regulated growth and development processes in rice
  • BL could not enhance its expression in transgenic rice expressing antisense BRI1, a BR receptor, indicating that BR signaling to the enhanced expression of OsBLE2 is through BRI1
