Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g15780
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0262600
• Gene Symbol: OsGT1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Microscopic analyses revealed that OsGT1 pollen developed normally to the pollen mitosis stage but failed to produce mature grains.
• We examined the role of GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASE1 (OsGT1) in pollen wall development in rice (Oryza sativa).
• In OsGT1 pollen, intine structure was disrupted.
• Taken together, our results suggest that OsGT1 is a Golgi-localized glycosyltransferase essential for intine construction and pollen maturation, providing new insight into male reproductive development.
• This study developed a genetically improved rice genotype by overexpressing a novel glycosyltransferase gene named OsGT1 to accelerate removal of butachlor residues in rice crop and its growth environment.
• The growth of the OsGT1 overexpression rice (OsOE) was significantly improved and butachlor-induced cellular damage was greatly attenuated compared to its wild-type (WT).
• Taken together, the reduced residues of parent butachlor in rice and its growth media point out that OsGT1 plays a critical role in detoxifying and catabolizing the poisoning chemical in plants and its environment.
• Both transcriptional expression and protein activates of OsGT1 are considerably induced under butachlor stress.
