Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os02g53200
• RAPdb gene ID: Os02g0771700
• Gene Symbol: Gns1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• To assess the function of the Gns1 gene in disease resistance, we characterized transgenic rice plants constitutively expressing the Gns1 gene.
• Although transgenic plants showed stunted growth and impaired root formation, fertility, germination, and coleoptile elongation appeared unaffected compared to non-transgenic control plants, indicating that Gns1 does not play a crucial role in rice germination and coleoptile elongation.
• RNA and protein gel blot analyses demonstrated that blast disease or dark treatment induced the expression of the Gns1 gene.
