Information
- Symbol: PSL1
- MSU: LOC_Os01g19170
- RAPdb: Os01g0296200
Publication
- PHOTO-SENSITIVE LEAF ROLLING 1 encodes a polygalacturonase that modifies cell wall structure and drought tolerance in rice, 2020, New Phytol.
Genbank accession number
Key message
- psl1 with a 260-bp deletion in its gene displayed leaf rolling in response to high light intensity and/or low humidity
- Taken together, PSL1 functions as a PG that modifies cell wall biosynthesis, plant development and drought tolerance in rice
- The PSL1 gene encodes a cell wall-localised polygalacturonase (PG), a pectin-degrading enzyme
- Significant modifications to cell wall composition in the psl1 mutant compared with the wild-type plants were identified
