Mechanical Stimulus-Sensitive Mutation, rrl3Affects the Cell Production Process in the Root Meristematic Zone in Rice

Genetic studies on the response of plant root to environmental stimuli are important for elucidating the mechanism of the stress tolerance of plants. We isolated and characterized a recessive rice mutant, rrl3,which was highly sensitive to mechanical stimulus and has short roots. No significant diff...
