Unlabelled: Previous studies illustrated that two banana GA20 oxidase2 (MaGA20ox2) genes, and , are implicated in controlling banana growth and development; however, the biological function of each gene remains unknown. Ma04g15900 protein (termed MaGA20ox2f in this article) is the closest homolog to the Rice SD1 (encoded by 'green revolution gene', ) in the banana genome. The expression of is confined to leaves, peduncles, fruit peels, and pulp.

Overexpression of general transcription factor OsTFIIB5 in rice affects seedling growth, plant height, flowering time, panicle architecture, and seed protein/starch levels and involves modulation of expression of associated genes. TFIIB, a key general transcription factor (GTF), plays a critical role in pre-initiation complex (PIC) formation and facilitates RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. In humans and yeast, TFIIB is encoded by a single gene; however, in plants it is encoded by a multigene family whose products may perform specialized transcriptional functions.

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing systems have revolutionized plant gene functional studies by enabling the targeted introduction of insertion-deletions (INDELs) via the nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway. Frameshift-inducing INDELs can introduce a premature termination codon and, in other instances, can lead to the appearance of new proteins. Here, we found that mutations in the rice jasmonate (JA) signaling gene by CRISPR-Cas9-based genome editing did not affect canonical JA signaling.

Rice ( L.) feeds half the world's population and serves as one of the most vital staple food crops globally. The brown planthopper (BPH, Stål), a major piercing-sucking herbivore specific to rice, accounts for large yield losses annually in rice-growing areas.

The phytohormone cytokinin (CK) positively regulates the activity of the inflorescence meristem (IM). Cytokinin oxidase 2/Grain number 1a (OsCKX2/Gn1a)-mediated degradation of CK in rice (Oryza sativa L.) negatively regulates panicle grain number, whereas DENSE AND ERECT PANICLE 1 (DEP1) positively regulates grain number per panicle (GNP).
