Annotated Information

'Figure 1. Generation of RISBZ1 and RPBF knockdown (KD) lines.'

Gene Symbol

• Os02g0252400 <=> RPBF

Function

• RISBZ1 and RPBF can ragulate the gene expression of DEFECTIVE KERNEL1(OsDEK1), CRINKLY4 (OsCR4) and SUPERNUMERARY ALEURONE LAYER 1 (OsSAL1) rice homologues.
• Combinatorial interactions between RISBZ1 and RPBF play an essential role during grain filling.
• The functional redundancy and compensation between RISBZ1 and RPBF possibly account for weak effects on the SSP levels in single KD mutants, and help maintain various processes during seed development in rice.
