Functional Descriptions:
- Sequence variations of the partially dominant DELLA gene Rht-B1c in wheat and their functional impacts.
- Rht-B1c, allelic to the DELLA protein-encoding gene Rht-B1a, is a natural mutation documented in common wheat.
- The results showed that Rht-B1c was partially dominant or co-dominant for plant height, and exhibited an increased dwarfing effect.
- Differential coupling of gibberellin responses by Rht-B1c suppressor alleles and Rht-B1b in wheat highlights a unique role for the DELLA N-terminus in dormancy.
- Expression assays showed that Rht-B1c caused reduction of total Rht-1 transcript levels, and up-regulation of GATA-like transcription factors and genes positively regulated by these factors, suggesting that one way in which Rht-1 proteins affect plant growth and development is through GATA-like transcription factor regulation.
