Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os05g0423400 <=> OsMADS4
Function
- OsMADS4 belongs to the class B gene family of floral organ identity determination.
Mutant
- Transgenic plants expressing antisense OsMADS4 displayed alterations of the second and third whorls. The second-whorl lodicules, which are equivalent to the petals of dicot plants in grasses, were altered into palea/lemma-like organs, and the third whorl stamens were changed to carpel-like organs.
