Functional Descriptions:

  • By separately overexpressing rPvGRF1, 3 and 9, in which synonymous mutations abolished the miR396 target sites, and suppression of PvGRF1/3/9 activity via PvGRF1/3/9-SRDX overexpression in switchgrass, we confirmed PvGRF1 and PvGRF9 played positive roles in improving plant height and G-lignin content.
  • We proved that miR396 targets, PvGRF1 and PvGRF9, but not PvGRF3, play important positive roles in promoting plant height and lignification.
  • PvGRF1 and PvGRF9, but not PvGRF3, positively regulate switchgrass plant height and lignin content.
  • Our data clearly indicated that overexpression of rPvGRF1 significantly improved switchgrass plant height, but had no obvious effect on leaf size, suggesting the GRF homologs may have different functions in different plant species.
