Abstract
Gibberellins (GAs) are plant hormones with a tetracyclic diterpenoid structure that are involved in various important developmental processes. Two GA-deficient mutants were isolated: a semidwarf mutant "sd1", which was found to have a defective GA20ox2 gene and was introduced to the world in a green revolution cultivar, and a severe dwarf allele of "d18", with a defective GA3ox2 gene. Based on the phenotypic similarity of d18, rice dwarf mutants were screened, further classifying them into GA-sensitive and GA-insensitive by applying exogenous GA3. Finally, GA-deficient rice mutants at 6 different loci and 3 GA signaling mutants (gid1, gid2, and slr1) were isolated. The GID1 gene encodes a GA nuclear receptor, and the GID1-DELLA (SLR1) system for GA perception is widely used in vascular plants. The structural characteristics of GID1 and GA metabolic enzymes have also been reviewed.
