Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os04g13540
• RAPdb gene ID: Os04g0213100
• Gene Symbol: OsHFP
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• The possible role of OsHFP in regulating programmed cell death in anther green tissues of rice is proposed.
• Heterologous expression of OsHFP in green leaf tissues resulted in chlorophyll degradation; however, stable expression of OsHFP was observed in transgenic hairy roots, a non-green tissue.
• The expression of the single copy OsHFP gene was detected in rice flower buds.
