Abstract
COLD1: a cold sensor in rice
Highlights
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important food crops in the world
Originating in tropical and subtropical regions, rice cultivars are grouped into two major subspecies, indica (O. sativa ssp. indica) and japonica (O. sativa ssp. japonica). indica cultivars grown in low latitude areas are sensitive to low temperature, while japonica cultivars with more resistance to cold temperature are grown in temperate and frigid zones [1,2]
This study discovered that COLD1 interacts with G-protein α subunit and functions in accelerating GTPase activity
Summary
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important food crops in the world. Originating in tropical and subtropical regions, rice cultivars are grouped into two major subspecies, indica (O. sativa ssp. indica) and japonica (O. sativa ssp. japonica). indica cultivars grown in low latitude areas are sensitive to low temperature, while japonica cultivars with more resistance to cold temperature are grown in temperate and frigid zones [1,2]. Originating in tropical and subtropical regions, rice cultivars are grouped into two major subspecies, indica Indica cultivars grown in low latitude areas are sensitive to low temperature, while japonica cultivars with more resistance to cold temperature are grown in temperate and frigid zones [1,2]. Scientists have been making great efforts to identify genes that control chilling tolerance traits of rice.
