Gene organization in rice revealed by full-length cDNA mapping and gene expression analysis through microarray Gene organization in rice revealed by full-length cDNA mapping and gene expression analysis through microarray

Satoh K, Doi K, Nagata T, Kishimoto N, Suzuki K et al (2007). Gene organization in rice revealed by full-length cDNA mapping and gene expression analysis through microarray. PLoS ONE 2(11): e1235. (DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0001235).

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a model organism for the functional genomics of monocotyledonous plants since the genome size is considerably smaller than those of other monocotyledonous plants. Although highly accurate genome sequences of indica and japonica rice are available, additional resources such as full-length complementary DNA (FL-cDNA) sequences are also indispensable for comprehensive analyses of gene structure and function. We cross-referenced 28.5K individual loci in the rice genome defined by mapping of 578K FL-cDNA clones with the 56K loci predicted in the TIGR genome assembly.

Improvement of water use efficiency in rice by expression of HARDY, an Arabidopsis drought and salt tolerance gene Improvement of water use efficiency in rice by expression of HARDY, an Arabidopsis drought and salt tolerance gene

Karaba A, Dixit S, Greco R, Aharoni A, Trijatmiko KR, Marsch-Martinez N, Krishnan A, Nataraja KN, Udayakumar M and Pereira A (2007). Improvement of water use efficiency in rice by expression of HARDY, an Arabidopsis drought and salt tolerance gene. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA 104:15270–15275 (DOI: 10.1073/pnas.0707294104). 

Freshwater is a limited and dwindling global resource; therefore, efficient water use is required for food crops that have high water demands, such as rice, or for the production of sustainable energy biomass. We show here that expression of the Arabidopsis HARDY (HRD) gene in rice improves water use efficiency, the ratio of biomass produced to the water used, by enhancing photosynthetic assimilation and reducing transpiration. These drought-tolerant, low-water-consuming rice plants exhibit increased shoot biomass under well irrigated conditions and an adaptive increase in root biomass under drought stress.
