The regulatory role of CARBON STARVED ANTHER-mediated photoperiod-dependent male fertility in rice.

ABSTRACT: Environmental signals, especially daylength, play important roles in determining fertility in photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterile (PGMS) lines that are critical to sustain production of high-yielding hybrid rice (Oryza sativa) varieties. However, the mechanisms by which PGMS lines perceive changes in photoperiod and transmit those signals to elicit downstream effects are not well understood. In this study, we compared the transcriptomes from the leaves and anthers of carbon starved anther (csa), a PGMS line, to wild-type (WT) tissues under different photoperiods. Components of circadian clock in the leaves, including Circadian Clock-Associated 1 and Pseudo-Response Regulator (PRR95), played vital roles in sensing the photoperiod signals. Photoperiod signals were weakly transduced to a
