Research Abstract |
In this research, we focus on two signaling pathways that regulate rice embryogenesis. One is a small RNA pathway that governs shoot apical meristem formation during rice embryogenesis and another is a MAPK signaling that governs early embryo patterning in rice. These signaling pathways themselves are both exist in rice and Arabidopsis, however, their functions seem different in both species. In this research, we demonstrated the involvement of these pathways in the early organogenetic events during rice embryogenesis.
