Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture expression in Oryza sativa. At the seedling stage, the leaf area and shoot and root dry weights of the high gdhA-expressors are higher than those of control plants under both high (high N) and low nitrogen (low N) conditions. The net photosynthesis rate at the heading stage is higher in transgenic than in control leaves. Under both high and low N conditions, the nitrogen contents in the shoots and roots, at seedling and grain-harvest stages, are significantly higher in high gdhA-expressors than in control plants. At the harvest stage, the high gdhA-expressors exhibit greater panicle and spikelet numbers per plant compared with control plants, resulting in higher grain weight. In addition, gdhA expression in forage rice significantly enhances their tolerance to salt stress compared to control plants Aspergillus niger
