| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To understand function of a fatty acid biosynthesis gene in rice, analyses of mutants associated with fatty acid biosynthesis were carried out, and it was revealed that very-long-chain fatty acids with the carbon number of 20 or more are important for epidermis development. In addition, a mutant of a receptor-like protein kinase gene was also identified, and its analysis suggested that interaction between signaling throughout plasma membrane and fatty acids are important for proper development o epidermis.
