Characterization and Gene Mapping of an Open-Glume Oryza sativa L. Mutant.

ABSTRACT: Floral organ development determines agricultural productivity by affecting seed development, seed quality, and final yield. In this study, we described the novel ogl mutant in rice (Oryza sativa L.), which is characterized by an open-glume phenotype, increased pistil number, reduced stamen number, decreased seed setting rate, and smaller rice grains. Genetic analysis showed that the open-glume phenotype might be controlled by a recessive qualitative trait locus. Employing bulked segregant analysis (BSA), one candidate region was identified on rice chromosome 1. The glume opening phenotype cosegregated with SNP (Chr1:1522703), which was located at the start codon of one transcript of OsJAG, resulting in partial loss of OsJAG function. cDNA analysis revealed that
