The Influence of RNAi Targeting of OsGA20ox2 Gene on Plant Height in Rice

The rice height has been proposed to involve gibberellin biosynthesis. In order to regulate rice height, we suppressed expression of OsGA20ox2 by the double-stranded RNA interference (RNAi) method. For this purpose, we constructed two different RNAi vectors, pCH1CK and pCH12CK, then performed Agroba...

Zusammenfassung:The rice height has been proposed to involve gibberellin biosynthesis. In order to regulate rice height, we suppressed expression of OsGA20ox2 by the double-stranded RNA interference (RNAi) method. For this purpose, we constructed two different RNAi vectors, pCH1CK and pCH12CK, then performed Agrobacterium -mediated transformation of rice varieties QX1 and Zhongzuo0201. The RNAi transgenic lines derived from pCH1CK and pCH12CK demonstrated a clear reduction in height compared with the control plants ( P
