• Information
  • Symbol: rth1,OsAPY
  • MSU: LOC_Os07g48430
  • RAPdb: Os07g0682800
• Publication
  • Molecular cloning of a root hairless gene rth1 in rice, 2009, Breeding Science.
• Genbank accession number
  • AK066262
• Key message
  • Transgenic plants with introduced OsAPY allele restored normal root hairs and plant growth, showing a complementation of rth1 phenotype
  • OsAPY appears to be an important gene for root hair elongation and plant growth in rice
  • We concluded that the root hairless phenotype of rth1 is caused by a mutation of OsAPY
  • To better understand genetic control of root hair formation in rice, we analyzed root hairless 1 (rth1) mutant that was induced by NaN3 treatment
  • SEM observation showed that in rth1 plants, root hair elongation was abolished after the formation of bulge
