Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os04g0477300 <=> BET1, ONAC081, ONAC81, NAC81
Function
- BORON EXCESS TOLERANT1 is a gene responsible for tolerance to boron (B) toxicity in rice (Oryza sativa).
- BET1 gene encodes a NAC (NAM, ATAF, and CUC)-like transcription factor and the function of the transcript is abolished in B-toxicity-tolerant cultivars.
Expression
- Quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that BET1 gene was expressed mainly in the roots and the expression level was less in the shoots in 7-d-old seedlings．
Evolution
You can also add sub-section(s) at will.
