Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os05g37140
• RAPdb gene ID: Os05g0443500
• Gene Symbol: Fd
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• The root Fd cDNA clone (pFdRR) was 603 bp long which contained 261-bp 5’ region encoding the C-terminal 72 amino acid residues and 342-bp 3’ noncoding region.
• The root Fd gene contained 1091-bp 5’ upstream, 444-bp coding and 294-bp 3’ noncoding regions.
• Homology between the rice root and leaf Fds showed 60%, while the former protein shared much higher identity with other nonphotosynthetic Fds (66~88%).
• Expression of the root Fd gene was induced in response to nitrate and ammonium.
• Southern blot analysis using pFdRR and the rice leaf Fd cDNA (pFdRL) as a DNA probe identified their corresponding genomic Fd DNA.
