Title The Rice CHD3/Mi-2 Chromatin Remodeling Factor Rolled Fine Striped Promotes Flowering Independent of Photoperiod.
Abstract:
Genetic studies have revealed that chromatin modifications affect flowering time, but the underlying mechanisms by which chromatin remodeling factors alter flowering remain largely unknown in rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i>). Here, we show that Rolled Fine Striped (RFS), a chromodomain helicase DNA-binding 3 (CHD3)/Mi-2 subfamily ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factor, promotes flowering in rice. Diurnal expression of <i>RFS</i> peaked at night under short-day (SD) conditions and at dawn under long-day (LD) conditions. The <i>RFS-1</i> and <i>RFS-2</i> mutants (derived from different genetic backgrounds) displayed a late-flowering phenotype under SD and LD conditions. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis revealed that among the flowering time-related genes, the expression of the major floral repressor <i>Grain number and heading date 7</i> (<i>Ghd7</i>) was mainly upregulated in <i>RFS</i> mutants, resulting in downregulation of its downstream floral inducers, including <i>Early heading date 1</i> (<i>Ehd1</i>), <i>heading date 3a</i> (<i>Hd3a</i>), and <i>Rice FLOWERING LOCUS T 1</i> (<i>RFT1</i>). The <i>RFS</i> mutation had pleiotropic negative effects on rice grain yield and yield components, such as plant height and fertility. Taking these observations together, we propose that <i>RFS</i> participates in multiple aspects of rice development, including the promotion of flowering independent of photoperiod.
