摘要: To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying lateral root formation, an auxin-responsive gene, OsZFP (Os01g0252900), was characterized from rice. OsZFP encodes a C2HC-type zinc finger protein, which locates in nucleus, and interacts with cyclophilin. OsZFP-RNAi lines exhibited distinctive defects in lateral root development through IAA pathway.
