| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Deep root system is important trait to get unevenly-located water in the deeper soil layer in drought condition. To improve the ability of drought avoidance in crops by modifying root system architecture, we studied on newly identified QTLs, qSOR1 and DRO3, which control root growth angle in rice. We succeeded in isolation of qSOR1 gene and demonstration of qSOR1 expression levels and patterns in several tissues. qSOR1 works in auxin signaling pathway same as known root growth angle control gene DRO1, on the other hand, they regulate root growth angle independently. Fine mapping of DRO3 gene was also performed in this project. However, we could not narrow down the candidate region of DRO3 due to the other QTL(s) having opposite effect to DRO3 located near DRO3.
