Present Projects

Physiological and Molecular Characterization of Natural Genes Controlling Seed Dormancy by Regulating Gibberellin Biosynthesis or Signaling in Rice

Categories: Breeding Systems,  Seed Quality and Testing

The objectives of this project are to:

  1. Confirm the qSD1-2 and qSD7-2 candidate genes for the seed dormancy function;
  2. Identify regulatory roles of the SD1-2 and SD7-2 genes in the development or release of seed dormancy; and
  3. Characterize the SD7-2 protein for kinase activity and interacting factors in the GA signaling pathway.
