Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for improving the rice yield through OsGRF6 gene, and applications thereof, and belongs to the technical field of crop genetic engineering. According to the present invention, after the GRF6 gene is subjected to overexpression in rice, the secondary rachis branch number and the number of grains per ear of the rice are increased, and after the GRF6 gene is subjected to knocking-out, deactivation or activity reducing in rice, the secondary rachis branch number per ear and the number of grains per ear are significantly reduced, such that it is indicated that the gene can control the rice yield; the GRF6 gene is introduced into the rice through the expression vector to make the GRF6 be subjected to overexpression so as to increase the rice yield; the GRF6 gene can further be used as the molecular marker used in the crop breeding; and the GRF6 gene provides the powerful means and tool for the new high yield rice variety by using the molecular marker-assisted breeding and the genetic engineering method, and has great application potential.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crop genetic engineering, in particular to a method for improving rice yield by OsGRF6 gene and its application. Background technique [0002] Rice yield includes traits such as effective panicle, number of grains per panicle, seed setting rate and thousand-grain weight. Increasing the number of grains per panicle is one of the key factors to increase rice yield, and the number of grains per panicle is usually positively correlated with the number of secondary branches. Therefore, identification, cloning and regulation of genes related to secondary branch differentiation can increase rice yield through genetic engineering and other methods, promote rice genetic improvement, and increase production efficiency. [0003] Although agricultural scientists have done a lot of research on the mechanism of rice panicle development and the cloning of related genes, the genes that regulate rice panicle development ...
