Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os03g0162000 <=> nal7
Function
- NAL7 locus encodes a Xavin-containing monooxygenase, which displays sequence homology with YUCCA.
- NAL7 is involved in auxin biosynthesis.
Mutation
- This spontaneous mutation of nal7 occurred during the process of developing advanced backcrossed progeny derived from crosses of rice varieties with wild type leaf phenotype. While the mutation resulted in reduced leaf width, no signiWcant morphological changes at the cellular level in leaves were observed, except in bulliform cells.
