Gene Symbol
- Os02g0811000 <=> OsBLS1,BLS1
Function
- BLS1 is required for lateral development of the lemma and palea in Rice, and does not function at stages of floral-organ initiation and patterning
Phenotypic analysis
- In bls1 mutant, floral-organ identity and floral-organ patterning are normal, and the defects occur at the stage of the lemma and palea expansion, whereas the other aspects of floral architecture and form are not affected.
Expression
- BLS1 is expressed strongly in young inflorescence, specifically the young lemmas and paleas of spikelets.
Subcellular localization
- Subcellular localization analysis showed that BLS1 is localized in the nucleus.
