タイトル <i>Decreased Spikelets 4</i> Encoding a Novel Tetratricopeptide Repeat Domain-Containing Protein Is Involved in DNA Repair and spikelet number Determination in Rice.
Abstract:
spikelet number per panicle is a determinative factor of rice yield. DNA repair epigenetically alters the DNA accessibility, which can eventually regulate the transcription of the target genes. However, what and how DNA repair genes are related to rice spikelet development remains unknown. Here, we report the map-based cloning of a novel spikelet number gene <i>DES4</i> encoding a tetratricopeptide domain-containing protein. DES4 is a close ortholog of <i>Arabidopsis</i> BRU1, which is functionally related to axillary meristem development. A single base pair deletion in the last exon of <i>DES4</i> caused a premature stop of the resulting protein. The <i>DES4</i> mutant exhibited dwarf, reduced tiller, and spikelet numbers phenotypes, as well as hypersensitivity to genotoxic stresses, suggesting its essential role in DNA repair. <i>DES4</i> is predominantly expressed in young panicles and axillary meristems, and DES4 protein is localized in nucleus. A set of DNA repair genes such as <i>cyclins</i>, <i>KUs</i> (<i>KD subunits</i>) and <i>recombinases</i> were differentially regulated in <i>DES4</i>. Meanwhile, rice spikelet number genes <i>LAX1</i>, <i>LAX2</i>, and <i>MOC1</i> were significantly down-regulated in <i>DES4</i>. In morphology, <i>DES4</i> showed more severe reduction of spikelet numbers than <i>LAX1</i>, <i>lax2</i>, and <i>MOC1</i>, suggesting that <i>DES4</i> may work upstream of the three genes.
