| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Temporal pattern of leaf initiation termed as plastochron is an important trait that affect the leaf number. In this study, we analyzed PLA1 and PLA2 genes, which regulate plastochron in rice, and explored their downstream factors. Transcriptome analysis identified a number of genes working downstream of both PLA1 and PLA2 genes. The analysis of RNA binding protein encoded by PLA2 genes identified its binding partner and our results suggest that the post-transcriptional regulation of these RNAs is important to modulate the plastochron in rice.
